Chile's wines first came to prominence around 25 years ago - consumers were bowled over by their elegant, supple, Bordeaux style reds. They had more ripeness than European Cabernets, but were leaner than say Oz. Then their Sauvignon hit our shelves, followed by their charming Chardonnay. Casa Elena is from a family owned bodega, Camaschi Barriga, situated in the Maule Valley. They grow the Bordeaux classics, both red and white, and we love them. They also specialise in Chardonnay - here, a lovely bright, fresh white with intensely flavoured peach and apple, with melon hints and blossom. Cool fermented, it's all fruit and no oak. Chill down and serve on its own any time, or with chicken with tarragon, salmon en croûte or creamy pasta.
