Product Description
Details

Arguably the most important winery from DO Somontano, Enate pioneered the production of Chardonnay wines in that northern Spanish region.

This varietal Spanish white wine was meticulously crafted.

Harvested by hand, the grapes were destemmed and gently pressed. Then Enate Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica underwent alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in new French oak barrels.

After that, this wine of the Enate winery was aged on its lees for 7 months, with two monthly stirrings of the lees.

Clarified and cold-stabilized, the white wine Enate Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica 2022 was finally aged for a further 6 months in the bottle before its commercial release.

Pair this white wine fermented in oak with white meat dishes, creamy cheeses and fish and rice recipes.

Appearance

Nose

This intense and expressive Chardonnay conveys subtle remembrances of toast and smoke, slowly evolving into aromas of ripe white fruit, citrus, and white flowers. There are hints of honey, butter, lees and dry fruit.

Palate

Creamy and palate-coating, this white wine from bodega Enate has a substantial body, balanced by a lively, refreshing acidity. Flvaours of white and tropical fruit, pastry and smoke. Long, toasted finish.

Our personal opinion

The wine Enate Chardonnay Fermentado en Barrica 2022 is thoroughly enjoyable. Excellent integration of fruit and oak.
