Saxenburg Private Collection Chardonnay has a seductive scent of soft citrus, ripe pineapple and freshly crushed almonds. On the full-bodied palate it convinces with its skillful balance between elegant fruit and well integrated wood. Its fresh acidity, creamy tannins and delicious hints of butterscotch on the finish make this wine a real treat.
Saxenburg's wines are based on a simple philosophy: a wine marks a place that the French call terroir. The better you know and understand this place, the better the wines will be. At Saxenburg, everything revolves around the wine, not the winery, not the marketing or the label. Great wines need great fruit and this is where the secret begins in the vineyard. In Saxenburg they say that if you have chosen the right grape varieties and the vineyard is right, then you don't need any more tricks in the cellar. The best treatment for wine, is none.
