Maybe Chardonnay
€15.00
A wine made from 100% Chardonnay grapes. Harvest takes place in mid-August, and the wine is aged in French oak barriques. It's a wine with great structure and body, yet delicate and elegant.
Fruity with elegant notes of yellow-fleshed fruit blended with explosive hints of vanilla and hazelnuts from the barrique aging. Enveloping and elegant, with a substantial structure, balanced by a fine minerality and a pleasant acidity where the oak tannins harmoniously coexist with hints of fresh fruit. A magnetic marine flavor prevails on the finish.
Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Pair with grilled white meats, truffles, soft cheeses (gorgonzola), grilled fish and structured dishes.
