INDICAZIONE GEOGRAFICA PROTETTA

Is made from 100% Chardonnay grown in soils characterised by a clayey and calcareous substrate, in vineyards pruned using the Guyot technique. A wine that seems to have an intense look, vinified in steel and aged for about six months in barriques; this gives it a complexity of remarkable aromas and a consistent mouthfeel. A label that challenges the passing of time, guaranteeing significant evolution in the years to come. This Chardonnay displays a bright, golden and lustrous colour. The bouquet that envelops the nose

is reminiscent mainly of fruity scents, such as ripe apple and banana, characterised by an accentuation of spicy references in the finish. Medium-bodied, with a rounded and enveloping mouthfeel, characterised by a fruity taste with hints of vanilla in the finish. A white wine with a clear, well-defined profile, which
pairs well with tasty dishes such as seafood spaghetti or risotto, mushroom flans, stuffed aubergines and peppers; pleasant in combination with grilled fish and white meat.

Wine made from vines that are at least 50 years old, on average, trained using the alberello method. This wine requires the grapes to wither on the vine, and the late harvest is carried out exclusively by hand. Strictly temperature-controlled fermentation makes it possible to obtain the right balance between alcohol and residual sugar. The wine then ages for 12 months in steel tanks, followed by six months’ bottle ageing. The overwhelming aroma of overripe fruit hits you immediately, initially with scents of sour cherries, blackberries and plums, followed by tertiary scents of chocolate, tobacco and spices. Full-bodied with a warm, smooth, sweet and satisfying mouthfeel. Very long persistence. Excellent at the end of a meal with dessert or mature cheeses, but also perfect to simply accompany your thoughts. A wine to conquer all palates.
