Chardonnay

Contessa NEW!
Year: 2021
- vegan - handpicked

Light golden yellow; in the nose delicate notes of butterscotch, tangerines and grapefruit zest, elegant wood spice; on the palate burgundy melt, juicy, full of extracts, some white pepper and melon, good harmony, fine persistent fruit, some mango on the back taste, tremendous finish.

Chardonnay has been native to Rust for over 100 years as "Klevner". It grows on calcareous sandy soils underlain with sediment. This is what gives this wine this particular minerality.
