Tasting notes on the wine:
"If chardonnay were ever raised to be riesling, that would be exactly what Brand’s Electric Chardonnay Acid Test would taste like. (In fact, there’s 10 percent riesling blended in!) Zippy, fresh, and mineral in all the right ways, this wine wakes up the palate like nothing else. And I don’t mean mineral in a Chablisienne fashion. We’re talking German-level: bone-dry trocken, through and through. Pair it with the best fresh oysters you can find." — Jhonel Faelnar
About the winemaker:
"Young winemakers Daniel and Jonas Brand are putting their mark on this region with fun, inventive wines with unique textures and flavor profiles." — Jhonel Faelnar
