Recommended by Guo Ying

This is one of the most interesting Chardonnays I tried this year. If you have some spare money to treat yourself, this is a delicious wine of choice. In simple language: This wine is clean, fresh but not frivolous. So smooth! I need a case of it. In the words of a wine nerd: This is a surprisingly clean and tight Chardonnay coming from granite soil. Hints of minerals lead to nice texture in the mouth. It shines more after decanting. A purely hand-made wine with no new oak, no batonnage and no filteration. It’s a good match to lightly seasoned fish, chicken and pork. The refreshing acidity makes it a good company to fried food as well.
