Chardonnay 2008
The Chardonnay grape has always been esteemed as beeing able to yield excellent white wines. The grape
is common in Austria since many decades at least but often referred to by one of its multiple synonyms
like Morillon or Feinburgunder. But that did of course never prevent it from showing its quality which
made Chardonnay wines famous and highly-valued all around the world. Our Chardonays are exclusively dry
styled and generally show a highly fruity and ripe character.
Tasting notes: Our Chardonnay 2008 offers a full aroma reminiscent of ripe flowers, interspersed
with exotic fruity notes. The ripe aroma blends harmoniously with an elegantly full body and the well
rounded acidity. This is a wine for simple enjoyment. It goes best with white meat, sauces and seafood
but it's also a good companion for light vegetable food like asparagus.
Drinking suggestions: Drink ideally within 2 or at most 3 years after the harvest. Serve at
6-8° C (43-47 F).
