Chardonnay 2025

Wine Description for Chardonnay 2025 from Haardt Hills

Character

An alcohol-free Chardonnay with merely 0.5% ABV – with this, Haardt Hills positions itself clearly in the growing segment of dealcoholised wines, which combines enjoyment with consciousness. The wine is made dry and aims for freshness, accessibility and everyday suitability, without relinquishing its claim to provenance and craftsmanship.

Terroir & Origin

The Palatinate ranks among Germany’s sunniest wine regions – protected by the Pfälzerwald to the west, characterised by a mild, continental climate with long growing seasons. The Haardt, the eastern foothills of the Pfälzerwald, lends the winery its name and stands for loamy-sandy and calcareous soils that provide the Chardonnay with a solid aromatic foundation. Here the Burgundian variety thrives with remarkable naturalness.

Grape Variety & Vinification

Chardonnay has established itself in the Palatinate as an international leading variety and displays an elegant, fruit-driven character here. With this wine, dealcoholisation is at the heart of the cellar work – a process that demands the utmost care to preserve the wine’s aromatics and structure. With only 0.5% alcohol, it meets the EU definition of an alcohol-free wine. Haardt Hills thus embraces a zeitgeist that opens wine culture to people who wish or need to abstain from alcohol.

Food Pairing Recommendations

The dry style and the variety’s characteristic freshness make this wine a versatile table companion. Recommended with grilled vegetables, salads with citrus dressing, pasta with cream sauce or light fish dishes. It also cuts a fine figure as an aperitif or with Asian-inspired cuisine – and at any time of day, without compromise.
