Johanninger Kreuznacher Römerhelde Chardonnay 2018

Despite being one of the smallest wine regions in Germany, Nahe delivers the most interesting and superior-quality wines. Although the Nahe wine region is not as famous as its powerful neighbors such as Mosel, Rheingau, and Rheinhessen, its diversity of soils and natural condition favors the production of the finest grapes that contribute to high-quality, exceptional wines.

This Johanninger Chardonnay is an opulent burgundy style wine with a lot of character. Spending 12 full months on its lees in 30% new oak barriques, this Chardonnay is fresh and bright with balanced notes of golden apple, yellow plum, lemon, and a slight hint of mushroom. Good acidity with a buttery, well-integrated wood, and a long finish.
