RE’s 2011 Chardonnoir was made from 55% Chardonnay and 45% Pinot Noir, taking the concept of Champagne and turning it into an incredible white wine. Whereas the 2012 vintage is all grapefruit, the 2011 brims with white peach, leading to a rounder and broader palate with gentle acidity and a sherbety lemon finish.

Owner/winemaker Pablo Morande wanted to ‘add value’ by stepping outside of the traditional mould of producing a white wine within Casablanca and Chile. The vines are around 20 years old and the grapes are pressed and fermented separately in large French barrels, and remain on the lees for nearly two years.

The name RHU derives from a mystical portal between heaven and earth and is wholly appropriate for a wine that is effortlessly aérien yet – with its pronounced mineral character – evocative of the granitic soils of Chile’s Elqui Valley. A blend of Syrah (73%), Grenache (18%) and Petite Syrah (9%), RHU is purplish in colour, with a nose of ripe fruit, cherry pitt and wet stone. Such energy on the palate.
