Hand-picked and hand-selected grapes. Gentle pressing followed by cool fermentation in stainless steel. One batch of this small-production Chardonnay was matured in stainless steel, the other in oak barrels. Both parts – the fruit-driven and the 'woody' version – were blended to create a wine with a characteristically subtle hint of spicy oak.

Medium yellow colour. Intense nose of lemon, pastry and pear. Soft attack on the palate, with firm acidity and spicy hints. A fresh, powerful, complex Chardonnay of genuine potential.

This Chardonnay is sourced from young vines that grow in the Wannenberg vineyard situated within the municipal boundaries of Würenlingen. Wannenberg offers a south-south-westerly aspect at an altitude of 370 metres. Its soils are alluvial.
