Morillon Blanc


WINE 45



DRY & RICH


The wine is an alternative wine with much of the character, fans of overseas Chardonnay in more expensive classes like. Juicy flavor with dense, rich fruit. Pear, peach, pineapple and tone of butter, tightened by good acidity with a touch of crust and vanilla in the aftertaste.


TØR & FYLDIG


Vinen er en alternativ vin med meget af den karakter, fans af oversøisk Chardonnay i dyrere klasser kan lide. Saftig smag med tæt, stofrig frugt. Pære, fersken, ananas og tone af smør, der strammes op af god syre med snert af brødskorpe og vanilje i eftersmagen.

General grape descriptions



Chardonnay


Wine drinkers find it flatteringly easy to enjoy, with its broad, exuberant charms, relatively high alcohol and low acidity, and lack of powerful scent. Vine growers find it easy to grow productively and profitably (it can yield well, ripen usefully early, although buds rather too early for frost-free comfort in cool climates). And winemakers revel in the range of different winemaking techniques to which Chardonnay readily submits: not just a wide range of dry white wines with more weight than most, but delicate sparkling wines and even a few extremely successful sweet white wines made with the benefit of 'noble rot'.
