Alejandro Vigil pushed the boundaries by adding a little flor to the winemaking process, similar to Fino Sherry. This process imbues the wine with a unique toasty, spicy, and salty flavor profile that is both refreshing and briney, with some honeyed notes. The wine's bouquet is a testament to the artistry of the winemaker, with subtle hints of oak and vanilla. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a pleasant aftertaste that lingers.
Crafted from handpicked Chardonnay grapes, the El Enemigo Chardonnay 2020 is a testament to the winemaking tradition of Argentina's Mendoza region. This wine is a perfect pairing for a variety of dishes, including seafood, grilled chicken, and creamy pastas. Its crisp acidity and balanced tannins make it a versatile wine that will please any palate. The bottle's elegant design reflects the wine's sophistication, making it an excellent gift for any wine lover.
Critic Ratings
James Suckling Review - Rated 96:
This has aromas of ripe apricots, buttercream, baked apples and pastries. Medium-to full-bodied with a creamy, round and almost oily texture. Lovely balance of ripe fruit and toasted-pastry notes with bright acidity. Delicious finish. Fantastic value, as always. Drink now or hold.
Wine Spectator Review - Rated 92:
Shows Viognier-like florals of gardenia and honeysuckle, with an elegant yet rich body of peach and pineapple. Reveals hints of thyme and mineral on the lengthy finish.
Wine Enthusiast Review - Rated 90:
Delicate notes of mango, lime and honey form a delicious nose. On the palate, lime, mango and pineapple light up this medium-bodied wine as moderate acidity balances the flavors. A touch of chamomile tea and leafy notes add complexity to the finish.
