The Springfield Méthode Ancienne (ancient method) is, as the name suggests, made in the style of old Burgundy. Only seldom in the so-called new wine world is spontaneous fermentation carried out, i.e. only by means of yeasts, which are present in the air of the cellar anyway, and without fining and filtration. With this "back to the roots" method, the winery succeeds in producing a wine with a distinctly classic Burgundy character. It is made to develop slowly and hopefully last for decades. Wonderful nuances of lime, Cointreau and orange! On the palate concentrated, almost buttery fullness, distinct minerality, complex and diverse. A masterly Chardonnay in the best sense of the word, which is only released in exceptional vintages!

Das Traubengut für diesen erstklassigen Chardonnay wurde bei Nacht gelesen und fermentierte spontan ohne Schalenkontakt und ohne Zugabe von Schwefel in 30% neuen Eichenfässern aus dem Hause Stockinger sowie zu 70% in zweitbelegten Seguin Moreau Fässern. Nach Abschluss der spontanen Gärung, d.h. für die Fermentierung sorgte ausschließlich wild vorkommende Hefe auf den Trauben selbst und in der Kellerei vorkommend, folgte eine Reifezeit auf der Hefe im Fass für einen Zeitraum von 12 Monaten.
