Angel’s Share Chardonnay
It has been known since ancient times that the angels of heaven descend on Earth every night to take their share of barrels filled with the divine drink. And because winged creatures are fleshless and humble, their share called "Angel's share" is only a few percent of the volume of barrels that winemakers then happily topped up. Whether they hope in this way to appease the Gods or think that this ragweed will return through the celestial creatures to the plants on which all their labor depends, is not so important. The main thing is that most of the elixirs worthy of angels are left for us - humans.
This is how the wines Angel's Share Syrah and Angel’s Share Chardonnay were born: from an inspiring celestial story that gave rise to the desire of Midalidare to share their angel’s share!
