Grape Variety: Chardonnay
Soil: Light marly soils which warm up quickly in spring.
Winemaking: On delivery to the winery the grapes are lightly pressed, the juice is separated solid substances by natural sedimentation and subsequently fermented at a constant temperature of 20°C.
Deion: This is a very agreeable, fresh and flowery Chardonnay, pale yellow with green reflexes in colour with delicate, fruity, warm and persistent aromas of apple, especially Golden Delicious which underpins its varietal character. The wine's crisp, tangy acidity combined with its pronounced fruit and impressive structure point to a wine which will continue to develop complexity, with a cellaring potential of at least 2 years.
Food Choices: Appetisers, pasta dishes and fish.
Allergic-Info: This wine can contain sulfites
Alcoholic content: 13.00 %
