Description
The Idun Renaissance Chardonnay is pale gold in colour, with a nose that balances stewed fruits with candy and zesty lime. The palate is full and rich yet with a delicate touch, and the finish is well-balanced and elegant.
This is a terrific cool climate Chardonnay made from hand-picked fruit that is whole bunch pressed. Fermentation is carried out spontaneously with natural yeasts, with only 30% of the wine going through malolactic, ensuring that the freshness is retained.
Idun is a small, boutique winery run by a French-Danish family originating from Mauritius. They produce excellent varietals which are well-balanced, concentrated, and elegant. They produce mightily impressive, French-inspired wines which you would no doubt pay a lot more for if the grapes were from France.

2021 Puligny Montrachet, Domaine Meunier
Chardonnay
The grapes for this approachable Puligny are hand harvested and undergo a gentle pressing. The juice is then left to settle for a few days then put into French oak barrels, 30% of which are new. Indigenous yeasts are used for fermentation and the wine spends 12 months in barrel before being blended and bottled. Great persistence in the mouth, this wine has a wonderful freshness to it and can be enjoyed in it's youth.
