Kamnik Chardonnay Barrel Fermented

White wine - Full - Creamy - Nutty

Complex yet beautifully elegant, with a subtle aroma of tropical fruit and vanilla. The palate is creamy, with a buttery shortbread texture and even a touch of nuttiness, leading to a fruity finish of melon and pear. Remarkably full and round, this wine has the potential to age further in the bottle.

Vineyards: The vineyard for this variety is planted at a density of 5,500 vines per hectare, trained on spur cordon and Guyot systems. Thanks to their position, the vineyards enjoy perfect exposure to sunlight. The excellent soil and microclimate make them a regional benchmark for producing world-class wines.

Cultivation & Harvest: All key stages of cultivation - pruning, leaf stripping and cluster thinning - are done by hand. Harvesting is also done by hand, at different moments and times for each section and each grape variety, to ensure the grapes reach the cellar at optimal ripeness.

Vinification: The grapes are kept in refrigerated storage before vinification begins. Cold maceration (extracting the aromatic compounds) takes place before fermentation, which is carried out in special stainless steel tanks under temperature-controlled conditions.

Winemaking: Estate-bottled and produced from 100% Chardonnay. This wine has a distinctive green-yellow colour and is crystal clear.

Ageing: What makes this wine unique is its fermentation and 9 months of ageing in new and used French oak barrels of 225 litres.
