Tasting Notes
In the glass, Ottin Canto X Chardonnay 2023 typically presents a pale straw to light gold color with youthful reflections, signaling freshness and energy. The nose opens with notes of citrus and orchard fruit—think lemon zest, green apple and pear—layered with hints of white flowers and a subtle mineral edge. With air, more depth emerges, bringing in a gentle creaminess and a touch of stone fruit.
On the palate, this Chardonnay is clean and focused, with a medium body and a vibrant line of acidity that keeps the wine lively from start to finish. Flavors mirror the aromatics: crisp apple, pear and citrus are joined by a delicate texture that may suggest a short time on lees, adding a soft, rounded feel without heaviness. The finish is fresh, lightly saline and persistent, making it particularly food-friendly. Enjoy it in its youth for maximum brightness and primary fruit, though it can develop a bit more complexity over the next 2–4 years.
Production
Canto X Chardonnay 2023 is made with a clear focus on expressing fruit purity and the character of its origin, with grapes sourced from carefully tended vineyards and harvested at optimal ripeness to preserve balance between flavor and acidity. In the cellar, Ottin emphasizes a gentle, clean vinification: grapes are pressed with care and the juice is fermented at controlled temperatures to lock in aromatic freshness. The wine is then matured in a way that prioritizes clarity and texture—often involving time on fine lees—to build subtle complexity and mouthfeel while retaining a crisp, varietal-driven style.
Food & Serving
This Chardonnay is a natural partner for a wide range of dishes: pair it with grilled or poached white fish, shellfish, sushi, roast chicken, creamy risottos or simple pasta with seasonal vegetables. It also works beautifully alongside soft cheeses and lighter charcuterie boards. Serve well-chilled but not icy, ideally around 8–10°C (46–50°F), to allow both the fruit and the more delicate nuances to emerge. Decanting is generally not necessary; simply open the bottle a little before serving and let it warm slightly in the glass for the best expression.
