Product information "Stellenzicht Thunderstone Chardonnay 2024"
The Stellenzicht Thunderstone Chardonnay beguiles the nose with vibrant aromas of fresh citrus and ripe apricots, as well as floral hints of white flowers. The extended period on the lees provides lovely layers of texture and multi-faceted nuances, while the stay in oak barrels, some of which are older, carries a delicious hint of biscuits and sponge into the lingering finish.

The grapes were harvested in the early morning hours and pressed directly on the whole bunch upon arrival in the cellar. The resulting juice was transferred to stainless steel tanks at a cool temperature, where it rested for 24 hours. The juice was then skimmed off the sediment, selected yeasts were added and some of it was put into 300 l and 500 l barrels. Once fermentation was complete, the oak barrels were topped up with the wine fermented in steel, where all the wine was aged for 12 months before being scooped off the lees, carefully blended and bottled.
