Product information "Almenkerk Chardonnay 2016"
The Almenkerk Chardonnay has a complex scent of fresh citrus fruit, fragrant lemon blossoms, white peaches and fresh coconut. This seductive scent is accompanied by wonderful undertones of floral notes, which underpin the wine's wonderful minerality. The slightly piquant palate was wonderfully rounded off by the contact on the yeast and leads to a pleasantly long lasting finish. The wonderfully typical "cool climate" elegance convinces in this wine!

Natural settling after pressing, fermentation on naturally occurring wild yeast in French barriques with subsequent maturation on the yeast for 10 months.
