Territory and wine style

The Piemonte DOC designation enhances a wine that finds a particularly interesting balance in its terroir. The vineyard is located at about 200 meters above sea level, with a south-southeast exposure and clay-limestone marl soils with a prevalence of silt, elements that promote aromatic maturity, finesse, and freshness. Manual harvesting in crates, soft pressing, fermentation in barriques, and aging on the lees with bâtonnage contribute to defining a structured but not excessive Chardonnay, with a rich and harmonious profile.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a straw-yellow color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it offers a fragrant and complex bouquet, with wildflowers, mango, citrus, and a slight marine sensation that recalls the savoriness of the sip. On the palate, the wine is savory, fresh, and well-balanced, with a soft texture but supported by good tension. The aging on the lees gives volume and persistence, while the partial malolactic fermentation helps to make the sip rounder without losing momentum.

Recommended pairings

Its savoriness and freshness make it interesting even with refined seafood cuisine and appetizers rich in nuances.

Serving temperature

To appreciate it at its best, the ideal temperature is 14° C. If served slightly chilled and allowed to breathe for a few minutes in the glass, it expresses its aromatic component and the pleasant breadth of the sip with greater precision.
