Nehrer Chardonnay Krainer Leithaberg DAC 2021 0,75l

Chardonnay Krainer Leithaberg from Nehrer is sourced from old vines in the extensive Krainer slope and its Poschen sub‑site above St. Georgen. The interplay of limestone‑rich rock and bare primary rock shapes a distinctly mineral, tightly woven style. The bouquet combines yellow apple, citrus and ripe stone fruit with floral hints, biscuit and a touch of smokiness from barrel ageing. On the palate the wine is powerful yet taut, driven by ripe acidity and a fine, creamy texture. Oak is used with precision, supporting rather than masking the salty minerality. A long finish with mandarin zest, apricot and subtle nuttiness underlines the wine’s ageing potential.
