Chardonnay 2024 Isole e Olena

Chardonnay 2024 Isole e Olena, elegant and precise Tuscan white

The Chardonnay 2024 Isole e Olena is a Tuscan white wine with great personality, an expression of one of the most recognizable wineries in Chianti Classico. It is made from Chardonnay grapes grown on the north-western slope of the estate, in the San Donato in Poggio area, and it balances a modern style that is deeply connected to the territory. This bottle is designed for those looking for a refined, structured, and pleasant Italian white that can naturally accompany both everyday meals and more sophisticated occasions.

Territory and wine style

The origin from the hills of Chianti Classico, at 350-400 meters above sea level, significantly contributes to the wine's profile. The vineyards, surrounded by woods, rest on soils of limestone, marl, and galestro, elements that promote finesse, tension, and a pleasant savory touch. The winemaking process involves fermentation in small barrels with limited use of new wood, preserving the varietal character of the Chardonnay without weighing it down. Aging on the lees for about 10-12 months adds complexity and roundness while maintaining a clear and elegant interpretation of the Tuscan territory.

Tasting notes

In the glass, the Chardonnay 2024 Isole e Olena presents an intense and bright straw-yellow color. On the nose, it offers a wide and multifaceted bouquet, where citrus, ripe apple and pear, yellow fruit, broom, and aromatic herbs emerge, with more complex hints of incense, delicate spices, and light roasted and vanilla sensations. The palate is full, harmonious, and persistent, with good structure and a successful balance between volume and freshness. The finish is savory, precise, and elegantly supports the wine's substance, making it complete and very gastronomic.

Recommended pairings

This white pairs with great versatility with both seafood and meat dishes. It is ideal with fish pasta, baked fish, shellfish, and vegetable preparations, but it also expresses well with white meats, poultry, and not overly aged cheeses. Excellent with Mediterranean recipes like cavatelli with zucchini flowers, mussels, and saffron, it also balances richer and more structured dishes. The Chardonnay 2024 Isole e Olena enhances the cuisine without overpowering it, thanks to its elegant profile and measured freshness.

Serving temperature

Serve the Chardonnay 2024 Isole e Olena at an ideal temperature between 10 and 12 °C, to enhance its aromas, tension, and flavor harmony. A long aeration is not necessary, but a brief rest in the glass can help bring out its aromatic complexity.
