The white wine Albig Hundskopf Chardonnay trocken, vintage 2021 from the winery Weingut Köster-Wolf has been rated in 2023 by Ulrich Sautter with 89+ Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Chardonnay from the region Rhine Hesse in Germany.
Ripe aromas, pear and popcorn on the nose, nutty aromas, flax, some green walnut comes through. Accessible with good freshness and medium structure, the acidity shows itself vivid, clear fruit, pear and apple, the residual sweetness provides harmony, slightly stiff with a creamy core, a typical varietal Chardonnay.
More about the tastingA yeasty note and buttery aromas (still) dominate the nose, with yellow-fruity tones behind them. The palate reveals a robust structure, medium-bodied and extracted, with a pinch of phenolics and a hint of sweetness that have yet to come together.
More about the tastingGrapey nose, hazelnuts, mandarins, lime zest, salted lemons, fennel green. Round, balanced on the palate, good acidity balance to the juicy fruit and creamy core, medium-bodied. A supple, accessible wine, calm, a great accompaniment to food, for example at a barbecue in good company.
