Hidden Vineyard Chardonnay Réserve 2016

Our Chardonnay Réserve is drawn from a specific section of our Vendersheim Chardonnay vineyard where the grapes reach a unique level of minerality. Its grapes are meticulously sourced from a vineyard within a vineyard, which we have been able to narrow down over the years.

Due to the strict selection, only 300 bottles per vintage are available.
