Selezione di Famiglia DOP Superiore White 6 x 75cl

Chardonnay.

 

These special clones of Chardonnay with very small bunches were selected to give life to the family Cru: a very low yield per plant, less than 1kg, and a pronounced sensory profile with some sumptuous fruit notes.

 

Strictly manual harvesting. The obtained must starts the fermentation in stainless steel vats. At midfermentation process, the must is placed in oak barriques of first and second passage where it will complete the fermentation and remains for one year.

 

Light yellow colour with greenish hints. A mineral nose that reminds to notes of flint, tropical fruit, fig pulp and candied citrus. Light and intriguing vanilla and thiol notes emerge. On the palate it is very elegant, full and persistent. A firm balance and freshness make it a wine with great aging potentia
