Sulz Erste Lage Sudsteiermark Morillon (Chardonnay)

Austria
Styria
2019

Ried Sulz is characterized by cool clayey marl soil in combination with a warm microclimate. The vines grow in a closed mountain basin with a South - Southwestern exposition which is excellent for Chardonnay. Deep, juicy aromas paired with silky elegance are the impressive result after a 24-month aging in neutral barrels.

"The barrel-fermented premier cru (1STK) 2019 Morillon Ried Sulz opens with a fresh, intense, yeasty and slightly oaky bouquet that seems deeper, toastier and more intense than the corresponding Pinot Blanc (Weisser Burgunder). On the palate, this is a rich yet vital, vibrantly fresh and sustainably structured Chardonnay from coolish calcareous marl soils located in a warm site. An impressive wine that needs a few years to open up and flow free. "
