Cardellino Chardonnay Alto Adige DOC 2019 - Elena Walch
Elena Walch's "Cardellino" Chardonnay is produced in the Castel Ringberg, the largest connected vineyard in South Tyrol. This wonderful Chardonnay presents itself with an intense light straw-yellow colour in the glass. The nose opens with a complex bouquet of exotic fruits, lime blossom, honey and ripe, soft aromas. The full and persistent taste delights the palate with freshness and lively minerality, which develops harmoniously and elegantly into a long, intense and soft finish.
Production of the Cardellino Chardonnay by Elena Walch
This classic among the wines of the winegrower Elena Walch is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the vineyard Rechtenthal of Castel Ringberg. After the manual harvest, the grapes are gently pressed and the must is decanted. After the fermentation at controlled temperatures, the must remains on the fine yeasts for a long time. A small part, 15% of the must is fermented and matured for 5 months in French oak barriques. The cuvée from both wines is made in the spring following the harvest.
Elena Walch's Cardellino Chardonnay food recommendations
Enjoy this beautiful, complex South Tyrolean white wine slightly chilled as an aperitif, with appetizers, smoked salmon and fish dishes, pasta, especially with creamy sauces, breaded fish fillets, such as plaice or perch.
