Wine Spectator: 93 Points
A rich white in a graceful frame, with a pronounced streak of salinity working with vibrant acidity to define the medley of baked pineapple and persimmon fruit, roasted almond and pastry cream, Meyer lemon peel and elderflower notes. Expressive and well-knit, with the long finish echoing the flavor range and packing additional mineral and spice elements. Chardonnay.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points
The Lowengang Chardonnay is an icon of Italian Chardonnay and continues to show the dedication of the Lageder estate to producing the highest quality of wines. Aromas of spiced baked apples, Comice pears, candied lemon zest, white flowers and baking spices are present. The wine is rich and broad on the palate with a creamy texture and hints of vanilla and both sweet and savory spices. The wine finishes with the energy and pulse of the mountains, showing both the mineral edge and the important acidity that gives this wine the structure for the long haul.
