This is a wine with a wonderful nose in which you can discover notes of ripe fruit, a sweetness and although wood is present, it is not predominant. When you take a sip you will see that this is a rich wine with a nice balance due to the fresh acidity.
Additional Info about the Domaine Dupont Fahn Chardonnay:
The small, renowned Domaine Dupont-Fahn is located in Burgundy, right next to the wine village of Meursault. The winery was founded in 1975 by Dupont-Fahn's grandfather. The Chardonnay vines were planted in 1929. Now beautiful wines are produced that are in no way inferior to many premium crus, even though this area does not have this classification.
The name Dupont-Fahn is a combination of the name of his father, a winemaker, and the name of his mother, a well-known American family that imports wines.
The wines from this winery differ slightly in taste from the wines from the area. The owner is a bit quirky. For example, he also makes a rosé in a region that originally only produces Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. That's why he's an odd one out in that respect. He also harvests very late in the season.
As a result, the vineyard's yields are always slightly lower, but the taste is much firmer and more exuberant than many of its peers. We therefore recommend drinking this wine young. The wine is aged for ten months in oak barrels. This leads to an intense, ripe and exotic-tasting Chardonnay with a beautiful long aftertaste.
