2021 Chardonnay Caliz, Kellerei Kurtatsch, Alto Adige

This beautiful, unoaked, alpine Chardonnay has a vibrant freshness that enlivens the palate. It is thanks to the high percentage of chalky, dolomite limestone in the soils that this wine was given its name – `Caliz` comes from the Latin word Calx (chalk). Very pale lemon-green colour, nose is airy and lifted, recalling lemons with hints of white peach. Palate is a precise, light bodied, palate-cleansing, citrusy mouthful, with a creamy texture and bright finish. We particularly encourage lovers of good Chablis not to miss this.
