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.

2023 Chardonnay, Hanewald-Schwerdt, Pfalz
Chardonnay
The Hanewald-Schwerdt Chardonnay reveals citrus & stone fruits with nuances of melons and herbs. Silky, lively with nice acidity.There is the merest whiff of old oak to this wine which is used purely to some softness to the mouthfeel. This is very appealing and an extremely enjoyable take on Chardonnay.
