Information about "Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique 2023"

The Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique presents itself in a freshly unwooded and dry style with predominant nuances of fresh lemon, fragrant quince, aromatic pears and orange blossom and spoils with fine creamy layers of convincing yeast personality, which enriches the palate and perfectly reflects the vintage. On the palate it shows itself well structured and finely balanced with an appealingly long finish.

With the best Chardonnays, it is usually the case that the character and class are created by maturing in French oak. Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique is made entirely without the use of wood (sans barrique), which is the key to its crisp, fresh and clean personality.

Treatment in the cellar

This wine underwent fermentation and maturation for six months in stainless steel tanks on its lees. It is not subjected to malolactic fermentation, enhancing its freshness. The six-month aging "sur lie" provides a rich element on the palate.
