  • Complete description

    Vintage Description:

    The organic Monteverro 2019 Chardonnay is quite elegant and perhaps more streamlined in this vintage with a direct delivery of creamy fruit aromas. There is preserved lemon, pastry cream and cinnamon, but the wine remains sharply focused throughout. You get a full-bodied white with laser focus and bright acidity to close. Exactly 8,605 bottles were made. (Monica Larner - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate; Jun 22, 2023)

    Zertifiziertes biologisches Produkt Bio:
    Das EU-Biosiegel ist der Mindeststandard, den ein Produzent erfüllen muss, wenn er seinen Produkt Bio nennen möchte und es ist die Grundvoraussetzung zum Beitritt in einen der Bio-Verbände, deren Auflagen jedoch noch strenger sind. Weine mit dem EU-Siegel müssen zu 95 Prozent aus der Bio-Produktion stammen. Wichtigstes Charakteristikum der biologischen Landwirtschaft ist die ganzheitliche Betrachtung des landwirtschaftlichen Betriebs. Natürliche Lebensprozesse sollen gefördert und Stoffkreisläufe weitgehend geschlossen werden. Bedeutend ist ebenso der komplette Verzicht auf chemische Pflanzenschutzmittel (Pestizide), Herbizide oder Fungizide. Gen-Technik ist grundsätzlich verboten, die Höchstwerte für Sulfite sind um ein Drittel reduziert, aber auch der Einsatz von Sorbinsäure zur Konservierung ist untersagt.

    wine description:

    This grape variety poses a challenge in Tuscany – although the sea breeze, cool nights, and soil structure make it possible to produce this single varietal white wine in a select few locations. Its crispness and elegant texture are similar to the great examples of Burgundy; it owes its complex aroma to careful work in the vineyard and ageing in both barriques and concrete. A unique Chardonnay from the Tuscan coast, produced in very limited quantities.

    Steile Hanglagen in Nord-Süd-Ausrichtung, die zum Mittelmeer hin sanft auslaufen, am Fusse des Städtchens Capalbio (Provinz Grosseto). Die frische Meeresbriese, die kühlen Nächte und die sonnenreichen Tage verleihen diesem Wein seine Einzigartigkeit und Anklänge burgundischer Finesse.

    Description [de]:

    Glänzendes, helles Strohgelb mit leicht grünen Noten. In der Nase ansprechendes Spiel zwischen reifen tropischen Früchten, Ananas, Mango und Banane, und edlen Holznoten.
