{"product_id":"domaine-h-chardonnay-2023","title":"Domaine H Chardonnay 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eA fresh, elegantly textured Chardonnay from Blacé in Beaujolais-Villages, Domaine H Chardonnay 2023 offers a distinctive white-wine perspective on a region best known for Gamay. Made from organically grown fruit and fermented with native yeasts, it spends around 12 months in French oak, where the wood adds depth without overwhelming the fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePale and youthful in appearance, the wine opens with aromas of ripe pear, apple and peach, alongside a subtle rounded note from its oak fermentation. The palate is fresh and harmonious, with generous fruit, lively acidity and a smooth, pleasantly full texture. Oak supports the Chardonnay rather than dominating it, leaving an elegant, balanced finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 100% Chardonnay comes from an east-facing vineyard near Blacé, around 300 metres above sea level. Its morning sunshine and surrounding vegetation—including bushes and trees—form part of Domaine H’s approach to vineyard biodiversity. The grapes are hand-harvested, gently pressed and fermented in French oak using naturally occurring yeasts. The wine then matures in French oak barrels for approximately 12 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnjoy alongside roast chicken, grilled fish, creamy vegetable dishes or a mild, softly ripened cheese. Serve lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, to bring out both the fruit and freshness. Decanting is not essential; opening the bottle shortly before serving should be sufficient.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDomaine H is a Danish-owned family winery on the southern slope of Mont de Brouilly in Beaujolais. Founded by Henrik and Anne-Mette, the domaine was established around a vision of making wines with care for the land, drawing on organic, biodynamically inspired and agroecological practices. It received official organic certification in 2022. Though best known for its Côte de Brouilly reds, the family also explores the region’s less familiar Chardonnay tradition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine H","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55751860650321,"sku":"VHF0272-23","price":22.63,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/domaine-h-chardonnay-2023-0.png?v=1794306060","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/domaine-h-chardonnay-2023","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
