In the glass, \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e displays a bright straw yellow colour. The bouquet is intense, with hints of exotic fruit such as apricot, passion fruit and carambola, combined with citrus notes. Enhancing the aromatic profile is a \u003cstrong\u003espicy minerality\u003c\/strong\u003e of flint, together with a slight woody nuance. On the palate, it offers a \u003cstrong\u003esoft and creamy structure\u003c\/strong\u003e, supported by a full and harmonious body, with well-integrated acidity and a juicy, savoury and persistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates from the vineyards of Terlano, in the province of Bolzano, in the Trentino-Alto Adige region. The vines thrive between two hundred and sixty and three hundred and fifty metres above sea level, with a favourable exposure to the south and south-west. This orientation ensures consistent ripening, enhancing the clarity of the fruit. The soil, with its \u003cstrong\u003esandy and stony composition\u003c\/strong\u003e, is permeable and has a profound impact on the development of the pronounced \u003cstrong\u003emineral texture\u003c\/strong\u003e and the compactness of the flavour. The care of these vineyards reflects Cantina Terlano's meticulous approach to enhancing the \u003cstrong\u003eTerlaner terroir\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins with the harvesting and manual selection of the \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e grapes. This is followed by gentle whole-bunch pressing and the clarification of the must by natural sedimentation. The \u003cstrong\u003eslow fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e takes place at a controlled temperature in large \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. Subsequently, the wine undergoes partial malolactic fermentation. The cycle concludes with \u003cstrong\u003eageing on the lees\u003c\/strong\u003e for about eight to ten months, carried out half in stainless steel tanks and half in large wooden barrels. This precise process allows for the perfect integration of the wine's lively freshness and flavour architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eTerlan Chardonnay Kreuth\u003c\/strong\u003e represents a true symbol of excellence from Cantina Terlano, a historic cooperative founded in 1893 and dedicated to the production of high-quality wines in Alto Adige. The 2024 vintage honours tradition through meticulous hand harvesting and a \u003cstrong\u003eslow fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e in large 30 hl oak barrels. Thanks to partial malolactic fermentation and ten months of ageing on the lees, spent between stainless steel and wood, the wine expresses perfect balance and an exceptional \u003cstrong\u003eageing potential\u003c\/strong\u003e estimated between 5 and 10 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cantina Terlano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45729017921707,"sku":"58668","price":29.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/terlano-chardonnay-kreuth-2024_58668_1_3d6d4025-553b-4b2d-8a49-3a937054926f.webp?v=1773786893","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-dk\/products\/terlano-chardonnay-kreuth-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
