Winemaking
After gentle pressing and static clarification, the fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 20 °C and long yeast contact after fermentation. 15 percent of the Chardonnay is fermented in French oak barriques and matures for 5 months. The assembling takes place in spring.
Our tasting note
The Chardonnay Cardellino has an intensive straw-yellow colour. Ripe exotic fruits, some lime-tree blossoms and honey give the wine its complex nose. The Chardonnay is full-bodied and structured, juicy and harmonious with a subtle softness. With a long and elegant finish.
