Description

Weingut Jakob Jung Weissburgunder Chardonnay Trocken 2023

Grape Varietals & Region: A blend of Pinot Blanc & Chardonnay from Rheingau, Germany. Grown on their estate loess soils with the highest proportion of calcareous sediments.

Taste Profile: Finely spicy notes of the Pinot Blanc and the fruity bouquet of the Chardonnay combine to create a wonderful cuvée with character. The Chardonnay unfolds in the cuvée with a fine and fruity bouquet, especially the typical apple scent. Light nuances of exotic fruits are mixed in. The cuvée shows the characteristic nutty-spicy notes of the Pinot Blanc and the intense fruit aroma of the Chardonnay on the nose.

Winemaking Process: The Pinot Blanc from the traditional barrel brings the melt, the Chardonnay from the stainless steel tank the racy elegance.

Often associated with coastal regions or limestone based terroir, these wines are characterised with crisp acidity, mineraiity, citrus tones, with a hint of grassiness
