Sophisticated old-world style Chardonnay; this wine could hold its own against many of its peers in Burgundy, yet costs only a fraction of the price. Everything one expects to find in a premium modern Chardonnay - structure combined with elegance, and an opulent warm body balanced with a distinct minerality from the chalky soils of Agrigento. Aromas of citrus, white flower and tropical fruit follow on to the palate with a subtle hint of vanilla in the background. A divine match for poultry and seafood.
“Fragrant, with aromas of citrus fruits and flowers and hints of butter, mango and yellow plum on a vanilla-tinged base. Soft and full, well defined by freshness and enhanced flavors, in perfect harmony and with a long-lasting finish. This wine can be cellared over 10 years.”
