Enjoy now or cellar for a few more years. No need to decant before serving. This is a striking Chardonnay with bright, straw-yellow colour and hues of green. On the nose, it opens up with lively aromas of flowers and white-fleshed fruits, with white flowers, pineapple, and banana taking centre stage against a backdrop of citrus. Chateau Julia was crafted without oak ageing, allowing the sunny character of the region to shine through. Domaine Costa Lazaridi was founded in 1979, when its eponymous owner founded the first modern vineyard in Drama, Greece. It is known for its pioneering attitude towards Greek winemaking, and its emblematic wines, often made from native grapes. Since 2001, the winery has been aided by the renowned wine consultant, Florent Dumeau. On the palate, the Chateau Julia Chardonnay is refreshing and pure, with a well-balanced acidity. It offers a fruity mouthfeel with flavours of ripe pear, green apple, and tropical fruits, complemented by palate-cleansing hints of minerals. The finish is persistent, leaving a lasting impression. Before release, the wine was fermented in stainless steel and matured on the lees for several months. Consider pairing it with chicken in a white sauce, Greek cheeses, or seafood.
