The KRISPEL Chardonnay Straden Vulkanland Steiermark DAC 2023 is an outstanding white wine from organic farming that impressively demonstrates how much character and origin can be found in a Chardonnay from the Styrian Vulkanland region. Weingut Krispel, located in the picturesque Straden region, has always combined sustainable agriculture with precise manual labour in the vineyard and cellar. This vintage comes from carefully tended vineyards on volcanic soil and impresses with finesse, structure and an elegant interplay of flavours.

The wine is matured for ten months in large French oak barrels - a vinification process that gives the wine depth, fine flavour and a subtle creaminess without masking its freshness. Despite its power and maturity, the Chardonnay is surprisingly easy to drink, with a polished balance and a long, mineral-influenced finish. The screw cap ensures optimum freshness and longevity. With storage potential until 2035, this DAC wine is suitable both for immediate consumption and for further ageing. A white wine that represents the style of the Vulkanland region at its best - clear, powerful and emphasising the terroir.

Tasting Note

The KRISPEL Chardonnay 2023 presents itself in the glass in a pale golden yellow colour with greenish reflections. The nose reveals aromas of red apple, fine floral nectar and a subtle smoky note that develops with clove and allspice. Dry and complex on the palate, it has a spicy, almost savoury component. The first impression is delicately opulent, with a creamy texture accompanied by well-integrated acidity. The wine ends with a mineral, clear, long-lasting finish.

Acidity: 6.3 g/l

Residual sugar: 2.2 g/l

Drinking temperature: 8-10 °C

This Chardonnay harmonises perfectly with strong, aromatic dishes and reveals its full class with osso collo or bat of wool pork. It is also an excellent accompaniment to veal steak and gnocchi with porcini mushrooms. Its complex structure makes it an excellent accompaniment to fine dining - whether for a festive dinner or a seasonal gourmet snack. A wine for connoisseurs who appreciate elegance, depth and origin in the glass.
