Information about "Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique 2024"
The Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique captivates with its fresh, unwooded, and dry style, prominently displaying citrus fruit intertwined with delicate floral and nutty nuances. On the palate, vibrant flavors of ripe apples and zesty lemon peels unfold, harmoniously melding with hints of jasmine and hay, while offering a crystalline texture and a lingering finish.
Unlike many esteemed Chardonnays that are shaped by aging in French oak, the Bouchard Finlayson Chardonnay sans Barrique deliberately avoids wood, accentuating its crisp, fresh, and distinctly clear character.
This wine underwent fermentation and maturation for six months in stainless steel tanks on its lees. It is not subjected to malolactic fermentation, enhancing its freshness. The six-month aging "sur lie" provides a rich element on the palate.
