Sattlerhof Morillon Ried Kapellenweingarten 2017

Chardonnay can display great mineral expression when grown on calcareous soils like those found in Ried Kapellenweingarten. The vineyard’s high elevation and cool microclimate give bright apple aromas and flavors framed in vibrant acidity while aging in large oak barrels bring roundness and complexity.  

Chardonnay, with its creamy texture and toasted flavors, pairs well with white fish and shellfish and its naturally high acidity can counterbalance cream-based sauces. Oak-aged Chardonnay from warmer climates lends itself well to grilled fish, starches, butter, and toasted nuts.
