Gantenbein Chardonnay 2023

96 Points, Wine Advocate: Gantenbein’s 2023 Chardonnay is very intense, rich and concentrated on the nose that is reminiscent of ripe and sun-kissed tropical fruits such as pineapples and lemons intermingled with flint stone and saline notes. Rich and generous on the palate, this is a full-bodied, very intense, dense and elegant, aromatic yet also refined and mineral Chardonnay that reveals intense and hedonistic yellow fruit such as melons and tropical fruit. The wine has very fine tannins and a generous, textural, saline, very long and savory finish. 13.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in Illmitz, Austria, in June 2025.
