The complete grape is put into the press and gently pressed. The fermentation takes place in steel tanks at a temperature of approx. 20°C. Our Chardonnay does not undergo BSA, so the freshness is preserved. In addition, a small percentage of the used wooden barrel. The maturation on the fine yeast takes place for approx. 6 months.

Tasting note
An intense Chardonnay with lots of ripe tropical fruit. Full and strong on the palate, it is soft, smooth and warm in the mouth. Harmoniously integrated acidity gives it juiciness and length.

The grapes for this Chardonnay grow at 550 m above sea level above Merano. A south-west facing slope allows the Chardonnay to enjoy a lot of sunshine here. The slightly permeable soils are characterised by mineral-rich granite and porphyry.

Eichenstein Vineyard
Cellar
The family of Josef Waldner, owner of the winery, have been making wine for 350 years. The origin of winemaking at the Eichenstein has its roots in Marling, where the dedicated wine lover created his first white wine cuvée “Gloria Dei” in 2005. In 2006, he followed on with his “Baccara” Marlot and Cabernet Franc red wine cuvéè, assisted and advised by renowned enologist Hartmann Donà. In 2007 Josef Waldner further realised his vision when he established the Eichenstein vineyard on the Freiberg, from 550-600 m, above Meran. In 2014, the crowning jewel of the vineyard was built: The wine cellar, a vinarium and a guest chalet. And in 2018, the most recent porphyry plot was established at 500 m above sea level.
