Dönnhoff: Chardonnay -S- 2021

Parker om: Chardonnay -S-

From old vines in the Roxheim Höllenpfad and vinified in stück (1,200-liter oval oak vat), the 2021 Chardonnay –S– opens with a deep, pure, intense and spicy mineral bouquet of bright fruits and crushed stones. Vinified in stück for nine months, this is a lush and juicy, very intense yet also highly refined Chardonnay with refreshing lemon bitters and flavors on the saline and yeasty, well-balanced finish. This is a gorgeous, very stimulating Chardonnay that intermingles its juicy fruit with mineral freshness with ease and tension. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in July 2022. 93/100
