2020 LOUIS JADOT STEEL CHARNONNAY

This unoaked Chardonnay combines the minerality of the Maconnais with the body and flavor of the Cote d’Or. The vineyard soils contain a high percentage of chalk and limestone, which imparts firm mineral nuances. Steel Chardonnay is vinified with no oak to retain the elegant aromas and clean, fresh character that the Burgundy region is prized for. The wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation and is aged in stainless steel tank to retain its fresh, crisp character.

GRAPES:
100% Chardonnay

TASTE:
Crisp fruit flavors of lemon and grapefruit with subtle notes of white flowers followed by bright acidity. Surprisingly concentrated and balanced for such a young wine, the flavors on the palate are at once delicate, powerful and rich.

PAIRINGS:
Pairs well with many foods such as salads, seafood and vegetables or on its own.

DISTINCTION:
Vinified without oak to retain the wine’s elegant aromas and clean, fresh character.
