もぐら(シャルドネ) 2024（白）

From the Niigata Prefecture-based CARVEDOZZI winery, "MOGURA (Chardonnay) 2024 (White)" is a dry white wine from the winery's 2024 vintage. Crafted as a 12% ABV, 750ml medium-bodied wine, this bottle is perfect for those seeking a Japanese wine that leverages the unique characteristics of the Chubu region's terroir.

The 2024 vintage was blessed with mild weather, allowing for the harvest of healthy fruit free from disease concerns. Following immediate cooling after harvest, destemming and crushing were performed, followed by a one-night maceration. Oak barrels were consistently used throughout the fermentation and aging processes. Furthermore, fermentation with natural yeasts was continued during winemaking, with careful consideration given to bringing out the inherent flavors of the ingredients.

The resulting wine features a harmonious balance of richness from the skins and body from the oak, possessing a smooth texture that feels effortless. By gradually changing the temperature from a well-chilled state, you can savor the subtle shifts in nuance as you drink.
