W... Dreams ... ......

To continue from yesterday's blog, we explore about the wine itself, W... Dreams ....... The wine is only 97% Chardonnay, with a sprinkle of some local Italian grapes to spice up the wine a bit. Jermann does make a pure varietal Chardonnay (which sees no oak), but this oak matured wine (11 months in 300L French oak barrels) seems to be better as well as the better known one. AS for the wine I tried (vintage was in Italian and unfortunately off the photo due to curvature), it was a nice golden yellow, with a grapefruit nose sporting meaty notes. The palate was crisp with grapefruit notes, well supported by a lemony acid backbone.
