Product Description
Details
Produced by L'Olivera Cooperativa, Eixaders is a varietal Chardonnay from the DO Costers del Segre.
Harvested by hand and gently crushed, the grapes were fermented in 25% French and 75% American oak barrels, 25% new ones. After that, this Spanish white wine also went through malolactic fermentation.
Then this white wine from Costers del Segre was aged for 3 to 4 months on lees with frequent stirrings.
We suggest pairing Eixaders 2021 with creamy cheese and white meat dishes.
This is a mildly creamy, smooth organic white wine.
It is worth noting that, for more than two decades, L'Olivera Cooperativa has been working within its community in favour of the economic and social integration of the intellectually disabled. An exemplary coop indeed.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The white wine Eixaders is pale gold with some greenish tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This varietal organic Chardonnay is well-balanced and complex. Ripe pineapples, almonds, green apples, remembrances of white flowers, some lactic touches and notions of pastry, smoke and mineral. |
| Palate | This white wine of L'Olivera Cooperativa is unctuous, smooth and palate-coating, but still fresh. Remembrances of flowers, smoke, English custard, French patisserie, citrus and laurel. Excellent acidity and a long, silky finish. |
| Our personal opinion | The succulent Eixaders 2021 balances freshness and creaminess in a most successful way. |

Nice organic Chard. The tropical and oaky notes are present, but this wine also has freshness, a note of aromatic herbs and a good acidity.
