Bergmannhof's Chardonnay 'Lina' comes from Chardonnay vines over 30 years old, rooted in limestone soils close to the winery. The wine ferments and macerates briefly on the skins to add structure and aromatic complexity. Notes of citrus and jammy white fruit meet vanilla and butter, the hallmarks of malolactic fermentation and wood ageing. After almost two years in barrels and bottles, this reserve wine is ready to be enjoyed, perhaps in association with fine cheeses with a bloomy rind
Intense straw yellow with golden highlights
Notes of cooked apple, preserved lemon, butter and vanilla on the finish
Warm and full-bodied, pleasantly textured, with a lively freshness
