Chardonnay Amber Harvest Tsarev Brod 2020

Art. # 5577
The grapes for the wine were harvested in mid-September from the vineyards of the Winery Tsarev Brod near the city of Shumen. The wine fermented at a temperature of 18 °C – 10% in new French oak, 20% in old French oak, and the remaining liters in a small stainless steel container. The wine ages for 12 months on the lees. Sparkling, golden color with shine. The nose has a pronounced mineral character: wet moss, chalk, bulrush, baked quinces, and vanilla ice cream can be detected. Fresh and juicy, with a full body and excellent development in the flavor aroma, and an impactful, long, slightly spicy, and fresh finish.

Chardonnay

Chardonnay

Chardonnay is the world's most famous white-wine grape and also one of the most widely planted. Of course, the most highly regarded expressions of the variety are those from Burgundy and California, but many high-quality examples are made in Italy, Australia, New Zealand and parts of South America. Describing the flavours of Chardonnay is not easy. This is not thanks to the complexity of the varietal itself but usually due its susceptibility to winemaking techniques - such as Malolactic fermentation which gives distinctive buttery aromas or Fermentation or maturation in oak barrels which contributes to the wine with smokey notes of vanilla, honey and even cinnamon, and not last the lees contact while in barrel imparts biscuity, doughy flavours. And all these incorporated with the varietal aromas of tropical (banana, pineapple and guava) to stone fruits (peach, nectarine and apricot), sometimes even citrus and apple notes. Climate plays a major role in dictating which fruit flavours a Chardonnay will have - warm regions (California, Australia ) make more tropical styles; temperate zones (southern Burgundy, New Zealand) - stone fruit notes, while the very coolest (Chablis, Champagne) lean towards green-apple aromas.
