Tabalí Talinay Chardonnay is a strikingly pure and mineral‑driven white wine sourced from one of Chile’s most distinctive coastal terroirs. Grown in the Talinay vineyard, just a few kilometres from the Pacific Ocean, the vines are rooted in ancient limestone soils rarely found in Chile. The combination of cool maritime breezes, morning fog and exceptional calcareous geology allows the grapes to ripen slowly, developing tension, precision and remarkable aromatic clarity. Vinified with great care and aged on lees, the wine captures the finesse, energy and saline character that define this unique site.

Meet the Producer

Viña Tabalí is a pioneering family estate in the Limarí Valley, celebrated for its commitment to expressing terroir with authenticity and precision. Their Talinay vineyards, planted on pure limestone close to the ocean, have earned international acclaim for producing some of Chile’s most elegant and distinctive cool‑climate wines. The winery’s philosophy centres on minimal intervention, sustainability and a deep respect for the land.

Production

Grapes are hand‑harvested in the cool early hours to preserve freshness, then sorted meticulously before gentle pressing. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperatures, with a portion of the wine aged in French oak barrels and the rest in stainless steel to balance texture and purity. Extended ageing on fine lees enhances complexity, mouthfeel and mineral definition, resulting in a Chardonnay of exceptional refinement and tension.

Tasting Notes

Pale gold in colour, the wine opens with lifted aromas of citrus blossom, lemon zest, white peach and subtle toasted notes. The palate is taut, vibrant and beautifully structured, offering layers of citrus, stone fruit and delicate creaminess supported by a pronounced mineral backbone. A distinctive saline edge runs through the wine, leading to a long, precise and refreshing finish.

Food Match

A superb partner for shellfish, seared scallops, grilled sea bass, sushi, creamy poultry dishes or soft cheeses such as Brie or Camembert.
