2020 Tauss Chardonnay Vom Opok

Tauss CHARDONNAY OPOK 2020 is a natural white wine produced exclusively from Chardonnay in Austria’s Styria and Sudsteiermark regions. The vineyards are established on a unique terroir featuring rocky clay and silt layered over chalky marl subsoil—locally known as Opok—which imparts distinct soil characteristics. Crafted in a classic 0.75 L format, the wine is made using minimal‐intervention techniques that emphasize the grape’s inherent properties. It is offered with CO2‑free delivery through Natural Wine Shop and is recommended for pairing with shellfish, crab, and lobster.
