Casa Silva 'Family Wines' Chardonnay/Semillon 2022
Casa Silva Family Chardonnay is a lovely, bright, fresh wine with 15% Semillon added in to give a little extra texture and zip. There is no oak aging so the wine is dominated by lovely tropical fruit notes, apple and citrus. Fantastic value from one of Chile’s best wine estates.
In 1997, Mario Pablo Silva made a proposal to his father: he wanted to transform his bulk wine business which had been owned by the Silva family since 1892 into a prestige bottling company for export, bearing the family's own name. Mario Silva accepted his son's challenge and Casa Silva was created. In a short space of time, Casa Silva has become one of the most prestigious and awarded producers of premium Chilean wine. They have a pioneering spirit and own enviable vineyard sites throughout the Colchagua region which they match up to individual grape varieties.
