mehrere Informationen

The Vondeling Chardonnay presents itself in a glass of delicate straw gold and smells refreshingly of pear and peach blossoms, a fine hint of lemon meringue cake and freshly rolled oatmeal. An ungmein full-bodied wine with great tension on the palate! Delicious taste nuances of crisp apples and chalky citrus fruit are complemented and rounded off by delicate hints of creamy crème brulé, fluffy cotton candy and floral potpourris. The finish is soft and pleasant, with a Chardonnay with fantastic finesse that lingers wonderfully long after the last sip. This text has been automatically translated.

Treatment in the cellar

The grapes were harvested at optimum ripeness in the early hours of the morning and pressed all over the bunch, after which the juice was not left to settle but was directly transferred to 500-litre oak barrels, where the spontaneous fermentation by wild, naturally occurring yeast cultures took place. No sulphur was added to the wine. The Chardonnay matured on its yeast for 7 months, after which it was blended in the tank. Afterwards it was put into the barrel for another 4 months. The wine spent a total of 11 months in the barrel before being bottled for final enjoyment.
