Chardonnay trocken 2021

A Chardonnay marked with a deep yellow colour and high viscosity. The complex aromatics open with dominant notes of buttered toast even as melon, golden delicious apple, nut butter, vanilla and toast slowly reveal themselves. Another swirl draws out balsamic accents reminiscent of spruce shoots. Dry with a rich, velvety texture on the palate. Delightfully fresh acidity, saline minerality, concentrated flavours with a creamy finish. A beautiful balance between maturity and acidity, with a masterful barrel influence that structures the wine without confining or compromising its character.

The 19-year-old vines grow in the Gau-Algesheim Goldberg vineyard and the Nieder-Hilbersheim Honigberg.

Primarily limestone soils.

Gentle whole cluster pressing, natural fermentation and then matured in old and new barriques from Troncais oak until the bottling in January 2022.

6 months.
