Julien RenardChardonnay & Weissburgunder 2024 (750ml)

The 2024 Chardonnay / Weissburgunder (the reference to the name is, as usual for this Estate, only provided on the back label) with lot number L: 24ALZ is a bone-dry wine made from fruit purchased grapes from a befriended grower in Rheinhessen. It was fermented and aged on its gross and fine lees in oak for 11 months and stainless steel for 6 months without any intervention before being bottled unfiltered and with minimal SO2 added. This green-yellow-colored wine offers a clean nose made of gooseberry, herbs, and fine spices. It is nicely juicy and playful on the structured palate and leaves a fresh feel driven by mint and white peach in the medium long finish. The aftertaste is fresh and alluring.
