Tasting Notes
On the nose, the Retzbacher Chardonnay clearly shows its notes of ageing, but is less sweet and vanilla and more fresh and cedary. Medium-bodied on the palate, balance is the key word here. Consistent acidity, yet never sharp, velvety mouthfeel, completely integrated power. Lemon zest, apple, still fine wood - a wine that can definitely be stored with profit.
