Parker about Chardonnay Réserve Magnum 2020
Vinified in barriques (new to three years old) and 500-liter oak barrels, Gesine's 2019 Chardonnay Réserve exhibits intense and elegant Chardonnay fruit intertwined with fine oak and mineral aromas of crushed stones. Tight and still with firm (oak) tannins on the palate, this is a fresh, round, refined and elegant Chardonnay with a long and vital as well as remarkably salty, tight-knit finish that is, however, still dominated by the oak influence but undoubtedly promising. I'd cellar this wine for four or five years at least. Bottled in July this year. Tasted in August 2021.
Suckling over Chardonnay Réserve Magnum 2020
What a beautifully elegant chardonnay this is! Delicate Amalfi lemon, toasted baguette and fresh nut aromas. Fantastic texture on the compact medium-bodied palate, the fine tannins beautifully supporting the lingering and polished finish. From over 20-year-old vines in the upper part of the Morstein GG site, the wine is vinified in 500 liter, mostly used wooden casks. Drink or hold.

Chardonnay Réserve Magnum 2020
The idea behind Weedenborn's Chardonnay Réserve is a Burgundian take on a Chardonnay.
It is rather elegant, mineral, has a delicate wood spice, and offers good aging potential. An overwhelmingly aromatic nose evokes notes of quince, yellow peach, passion fruit, and light vanilla. On the palate, aromas of ripe pear, biscuit, and mint are evident.
Expansion
It was fermented spontaneously and aged on the full lees in new oak for 18 months. It was then bottled unfiltered.
