Main Characteristics

A taste of our Chardonnay transports one to a hay field. The straw-yellow colour and the green reflections, the smell of the field, of peach and a touch of exotic fruit, make this wine complete.
A measured bitterness and an elegant acidity expertly come together with the aromas and the after-tastes of fruit to make it harmonious and very drinkable.
