Chardonnay "Concrete Egg" - Alexandra Estate

Chardonnay Concrete Egg is a white wine from Alexandra Estate, the boutique estate linked to Domaine Menada in the Stara Zagora region of southern Bulgaria. As its name says, it is fermented in a concrete egg, a vessel that allows gentle natural movement of the lees without adding oak flavours. It has 13.5% ABV and a natural cork.

The concrete egg gives the wine a creamy, textured mouthfeel while keeping Chardonnay's pure fruit in focus. Expect aromas of ripe apple, pear, citrus and white flowers with subtle mineral notes, a round, layered palate and a long, fresh finish.

Serve chilled with poultry, fish in creamy sauces, risotto and soft cheeses.
