Venus 2021

Tasting note

Light green, with yellowish reflections, the Chardonnay shimmers in the glass and awakens the senses with fruity scents of pineapple, peach, lime and lemongrass. The aroma seems to be spiced with a hint of dark chocolate and notes of flint. The lively acidity makes the aromatic Chardonnay a playful yet elegant pleasure. The aromatic orchard in the glass is complemented by flint and a slightly smoky-woody note in the finish.

Terroir

The grapes for the Chardonnay come from the Mauchener Sonnenstück. The Mauchener vineyard lies like a picture in a basin with some extremely steep slopes, but with very fertile soil made of medium-heavy loess clay, which can store very large amounts of water due to its soil structure, which can be an enormous advantage in very hot years.

Food pairings

White asparagus, poached fish dishes, truffle pasta
