From another exciting, rainy but late and, in the end, classic vintage in Graubunden, Martin Donatsch's 2021 Chardonnay Passion displays a bright, citrus-yellow color with lime-green reflections. Still young and dew-fresh on the nose, with precise and coolish white and yellow fruit aromas and lovely reductive, lemon-scented notes of crushed white stones and broken schist and phenols, this is a lush and elegant, finely tannic yet overall charming and flattering Chardonnay with juicy-savory fruit and refreshing saline acidity that creates a serious and well-structured finish. This is a remarkably good second wine to the Unique. It comes highly recommended, if only you could find a bottle. 13% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine in Malans and at the Grand Resort Bad Ragaz in February 2023. ... More details

Light golden yellow, classic Burgundy-style Chardonnay with a fine apricot and honey bouquet, full, mineral palate with spicy wood aromas. Terroir wine with long aging potential. Food Pairing: Good food companion that goes perfectly with fish, seafood, and white meat, as well as pasta and cheese dishes.

Varietal: Chardonnay

There are few white wine grape varietals as famous or widely appreciated as the Chardonnay, and with good reason. This highly flexible and adaptable grape quickly became a favorite of wineries due to its fairly neutral character. This neutrality allows the wineries to really show off what they are capable of doing, by allowing features of their terroir or aging process to come forward in the bottle. As well as this, most high quality wineries which produce Chardonnay wines take great efforts to induce what is known as malolactic fermentation, which is the conversion of tart malic acids in the grapes to creamy, buttery lactic acids associated with fine Chardonnay. Whilst the popularity of Chardonnay wines has fluctuated quite a considerable amount over the past few decades, it seems the grape varietal allows enough experimentation and versatility for it always to make a successful comeback.
