Treinta Y Dos 2023 Chacra

Professional reviews

James Suckling (99)

Violets, black cherries, raspberries, crushed stone and orange blossoms. Notes of flower stems, dried sand and bark. Medium- to full-bodied with layers of fine tannins that fill the mouth, giving a crunchiness and open chewiness that reminds me of fine cashmere. Bright and lively. At the end it’s like a freshly cut orange just at the right ripeness.

Decanter (96)

Coming from Chacra’s oldest block of vines, planted in 1932, you might expect this to be the most concentrated wine, but it is actually the ballerina of the portfolio – strong but elegant, uplifting yet poised. A boney, chalky minerality underpins the wine, while heady notes of violets, crushed raspberries and tart cranberries linger above. There’s great depth, although it floats to its seemingly effortless finish.
