Information about "Vondeling Barrel Selection Chardonnay 2024"

The Vondeling Chardonnay enchants with its delicate straw gold hue, inviting the senses with aromas of ripe pears, floral peach blossoms, and a subtle hint of caramelized oats. This expressive wine offers a medium to full-bodied palate, showcasing delightful nuances of crisp apples and chalky citrus notes, complemented by gentle traces of fine crème brûlée, airy cotton candy, and roasted almonds. The finish is soft and pleasing, with this extraordinary Chardonnay leaving a wonderfully lingering impression long after the last sip.

Treatment in the cellar All grapes are picked at optimum ripeness in the early hours of the morning. They are then packed into a cold room to be chilled further for processing the following day. The grapes are whole bunch pressed, which reduces the absorption of coarse phenolics and helps retain more of the grape’s natural vibrancy. The juice is not settled but sent directly to three and 400-liter French oak barrels where spontaneous wild yeast fermentation takes place. No Sulphur is added, and the wine typically undergoes a high degree of malolactic fermentation. The wine is matured on its yeast lees for seven months after which it is blended to tank, then returned to barrel for a further four months. The wine spends 11 months in barrel before finally being returned to tank for a gentle filtration and stabilization before bottling.
