The year 2020 was prolific for the vineyard where the grapes from which we obtain this wine come. A large number of sunny days, low precipitation, as well as temperatures without extremes that go out of the chart, helped us to obtain a rich and healthy harvest. There were no heavy snowfalls in the winter, as in previous years, and the spring precipitation ensured a reserve of water in the soil necessary for the rest of the year. This helped the vine to tolerate the drought, as well as the high summer heat, both during the day and at night. In autumn, during the grape picking period, precipitation was lacking
perfection, and the high temperatures allowed us to harvest a few days earlier than in previous years.

winemaking
The grapes were vinified using modern winery technology to macerate the grapes for 5 hours at very low temperatures inside a pneumatic press. Thus, the aromas were carefully extracted, and the fermentation began in stainless steel vessels at temperatures of 17°C and continued in oak barriques. At the end of fermentation, the wine was left to age for 6 months in the same barrels. Then the wine was bottled and stored in the cellar to perfect the taste.

Historical data
The plots of Chardonnay spread over an area of ​​1.45 ha on a secluded hill from the Dealu Mare vineyard. The south-west exposure ensures a large amount of light and heat very favorable for the grapes. The name Coltul Pietrei that this range bears was inspired by the name given by the locals to the region where the vine is planted, as a result of the very high content of stone and limestone in the soil. These are also very favorable for the grape, giving a special minerality to the wine obtained from it.

Tasting notes
The wine has a straw-yellow color with slight golden inflections, and the aromatic bouquet opens gradually - from sweet green fruits to honeycomb and even herbaceous-citrus impressions. The specific smoothness of the Chardonnay variety is present in harmony with the specific minerality of the Coltul Pietrei range, highlighting a lively wine. It is recommended to consume it at 8-10°C with fish, seafood or poultry.

Alcohol is seriously harmful to health. Consume in moderation. It is forbidden to sell to people under 18 years of age.

Do not consume by pregnant women.
