Information about "Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique 2024"
The Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique showcases an unwooded and dry style, marked by dominant citrus fruit nuances complemented by delicate floral and nutty layers. On the palate, it reveals intense flavors of ripe apples and zesty lemon peels, seamlessly intertwined with hints of jasmine and hay, along with a crystalline texture and an enticingly lingering finish.
While many esteemed Chardonnays gain character through aging in French oak, the Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique eschews wood entirely, which is crucial to its crisp, fresh, and beautifully clear personality.
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.
