Food match: Dry Weissburgunder is a good match for pork, chicken and veal dishes.Weingut Messmer, in the Pfalz
region, was founded by Herbert and Elizabeth Messmer in 1960. It's situated in
Burrweiler, in the south-west of Germany, less than 50 miles from the border
with France and to the north-west of Stuttgart. The yellow sandstone buildings
had already been home to winemaking for around 250 years before they
arrived.It's still in the family's hands today, with son Martin overseeing the
estate alongside his brother Gregor, who supervises production in the vineyard
and winery. Their vineyards cover 27 hectares, with around two-thirds of the
area planted with white varieties (predominantly Riesling, Pinot Gris and Pinot
Blanc) and the rest with red varieties (Pinot Noir in the main).The terroir is
made up of seven different soil types: slate, red sandstone, granite,
limestone, loam, sand and 'muschelkalk' - a calcareous soil with substantial
deposits of fossilised mussel shells. Gregor works to preserve the health and
mineral content of the soils - they use only organic fertilisers, and in 2011
they began the biodynamic cultivation of some sites. In the winery
fermentations are cool, slow and small batch; grapes are only ever partially
de-stemmed; and wines are bottled without fining and with only the gentlest
filtration.
This is a modern Chardonnay, on the nose there is an appealing salinity over toasted hazelnut
aromas. The palate has a stone fruit and struck match structure to it that gives it a gentle minerality.
This wine wants buttery chicken, pork tenderlion or a mushroom stroganoff.Fruit comes from a vineyard in Monterey, California’s Central Coast region. The Chardonnay
vineyard has its own AVA, San Bernabe and sits next to a chain of hills which separate the vineyards
from the Pacific coast. Chardonnay benefits from the cooler evenings this region enjoys helping to
maintain natural freshness. After careful selection fruit is pressed gently in a bladder press before
fermentation in stainless steel. 20% of the blend is aged for 6 months in new and used French oak.Suitable for Vegans.Suitable for vegetarians.
