Product information "Thelema Ed's Reserve Chardonnay 2016"
Once again this outstanding winery has hit the nail on the head. Thelema Ed's Reserve Chardonnay smells simply fantastic and multi-layered with fresh lime as well as peppery and wonderfully floral aromas. Yeast and freshly baked brioche come to mind. On the palate it is incredibly elegant with delicious fruit nuances, it spreads out velvety and soft with a long and velvety finish.

After destemming, the grapes were crushed for this wine, left to rest overnight in contact with the skin and transferred to horizontal stainless steel tanks for settling. The fermentation of the grapes took place in oak barrels, 15% of them in new oak, the rest in second and third fillings, which makes the wood in the wine less obvious.
