mehrere Informationen

La Motte Chardonnay , with its seductive green-gold hue in the glass, caresses the palate with delicious flavours of fruity lemon and nectarine, as well as soft hints of cashew nut and yeast, as the only subtle hints of wood ripening. This taste profile, combined with a slightly lower alcohol content and medium body, brings a wonderful freshness. With plenty of finesse and a seductively long and lively aftertaste of citrus and juicy peach, this Chardonnay promises enjoyment across the board. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were pressed all over the bunch and two thirds of the grape juice was directly filled into French 300 l barriques. The alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 17° to 20°C. The malolactic fermentation was also carried out in the barrels, of which only 25% were new wood, the rest was previously covered with wood. The remaining third of the grape juice was fermented in steel tanks and remained there for another 11 months, during which the yeast was regularly stirred. Only at the end of the maturation were the individual components of the wine blended and bottled.
