@Delectable Wine this the Schweigener Chardonnay.
From southern Pfalz, directly on the French border, this is very French in style, indeed. Very Chablis’esque.
Cool, crisp, quite modern, with decent wood present but the limestone minerality & austerity shining through.
Dried herbs, ripe lemons, yellow stone fruit. A touch of red apple perhaps. Fresh & zippy. The wood is (already now) very nicely integrated, brining a slightly creamy mouthfeel and beautifully counter balancing the limestone minerality.
Nice depth & purity here. Great drinkability, too. A nice alternative to Chablis more than Cote de Beaune or Chalonnais.
Nice stuff!
