The Adrianna Vineyard is located at a high altitude of 1,500 meters in the Uco Valley. Known as the “Grand Cru of South America,” this vineyard produces wines that are both powerful and elegant due to the unique combination of limestone-rich soils and cool climate conditions.

"White Bones" refers to the presence of fossilised limestone and calcium deposits, resembling bones, in the vineyard’s soil. This calcareous soil, coupled with the high altitude, leads to a wine with notable minerality, crisp acidity, and depth. The extreme altitude also ensures cool climate conditions, which are perfect for growing Chardonnay grapes with slow ripening, resulting in great aromatic complexity and freshness.

Drinking window: 2023 - 2031

What the critics say:

98+/100Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate

"The 2021 White Bones Chardonnay was harvested at two different points of ripeness and then blended into the final wine, which is subtler than the explosive 2020 I tasted next to it but with the same palette of aromas—thyme, rosemary, lavender, rockrose, white flowers, citrus, pine needles, incense, curry and spices—and the palate is seamless, mineral and with a chalky texture. It's brilliant and expresses the variety, vintage and soil perfectly."
