Chardonnay bubbly in three versions
Koch Winery in Hajós–Baja wine region makes traditional method sparkling wine of Chardonnay in three versions: there is a brut one, an extra brut one and an extra brut without disgorging. This last one is undoubtedly a unique drink even for the experienced sparkling wine drinkers. The fine lees give complexity and richness to a sparkling wine, but we get rid of it in order to obtain an attractive, clean and bright drink. And what if we do not remove the fine lees? It is an adventure, try it! But in moderation, since the fine lees can give headache if you are sensitive, but with one-two glasses there is no need to worry.
The grape was picked by hand from the vineyards around the estate building in Borota, Hajós–Baja wine region. Currently the 2023 vintage is available, abundant in citrus notes, mainly grapefruit along with green apple and some hazelnut. Elegant, complex and exciting sparkling wine with elevated acidity.
The retail price is around 28 EUR.
