Product information "Babylonstoren Chardonnay 2022"
The Babylonstoren Chardonnay is a great wine for very special moments! This dry and incredibly full-bodied white wine matured for 12 months in French oak barrels and is characterized by its wonderfully delicious nuances of tart citrus fruit, underscored by soft undertones of warm vanilla and a nutty complexity.

The grapes for the Babylonstoren Chardonnay were cold pressed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks for the first three days, after which the wine was transferred to 300 l French oak barrels for further fermentation. Once fermentation was complete, the wine was left on the lees for 3-4 months, with stirring every three weeks (batonnage). The wine then matured for a further 12 months in French barriques before being bottled.
