Production
Fruit from ungrafted 12+ year old vines in sandy loom soil, this Chardonnay was harvested in two stages: an early one, to highlight acidity, and a later one, contributing mouth structure and the typical tropical aromas of the variety. The grapes are pressed and placed in tanks; after 24 hours the must is racked and selected yeasts are inoculated to begin alcoholic fermentation, which lasts between 7 and 10 days. Once fermentation is complete, both harvest components are blended, and the wine is kept on fine lees before stabilization and bottling.
Tasting notes
On the nose, notes of pink grapefruit and citrus stand out, accompanied by delicate tropical aromas and a subtle sweet background. On the palate, it offers a smooth entry, with freshness and balance that invite another sip!
Food match
Roast chicken, salmon, creamy mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses.
