Especially selected for fruit intensity and aromatics, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel to capture the purity of the flavors. After completing malolactic fermentation, the wine is kept in the tank until bottling in late spring.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe Clones\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe blend of clones in the 2011 Acero is 67% See and 33% Rued.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe Vinification\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThe grapes were harvested October 1-2, gently whole-cluster pressed and cold fermented together in stainless steel tanks at 55 degrees F. After completing the primary fermentation, the wine went through 100% malolactic in the same tank. It was bottled in August 2012.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\tThis is another classic bottling of Acero -- attractive bright fruit, fresh and lively, with notes of lemon cream, white peach and ginger. Crisp and vibrant in the mid palate, it shows great balance, full flavors and a dry, long finish. It is easy to drink and to enjoy, perfect with foods like tapas and light dishes. I would recommend serving it at 46-48 F.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marimar Estate","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44948775665711,"sku":"C1EE333001CHS","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/4677\/5087\/files\/marimaracero.jpg?v=1771483508","url":"https:\/\/timelesswinesdirect.com\/products\/marimar-estate-acero-chardonnay-2011","provider":"timelesswines.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
