Gesellmann’s Chardonnay offers a fresh, modern take on the variety from the Mittelburgenland. Organically farmed vines on limestone and loam soils provide perfectly ripe grapes that are fermented at cool temperatures and treated gently in the cellar. The bouquet reveals yellow tropical fruit, pineapple, peach and a hint of caramel, backed by subtle herbal spice. On the palate the wine is juicy, elegant and softly creamy, with lively acidity and a delicate, salty mineral finish. It is a highly adaptable white that pairs well with antipasti, fish, poultry or vegetable dishes.
In the Blaufränkisch stronghold of Deutschkreutz, Weingut Gesellmann carries a long family thread—first documented in 1719—yet never static. Pannonian warmth, loam and clay give the backdrop for reds with natural grip. During the 1980s, Engelbert Gesellmann helped redefine Burgenland by planting international varieties and embracing French barriques, setting a benchmark that still echoes in the cellar....
Chardonnay is a globally renowned white grape from Burgundy, capable of crisp, mineral, creamy or oak-aged styles. Its flavours range from citrus and apple to peach, butter, nuts and toast.
It pairs with seafood, chicken, creamy pasta, mushrooms, lobster and soft cheeses. Chardonnay is exciting because it can be beautifully simple or profoundly complex.
