“original, unique, authentic”
I wanted to conceive a Chardonnay because I knew that with
the limestone our territory offers, together with
the draining soil and the temperature changes influenced
by the Bora, I could create an inimitable wine

Tasting
Brilliant clean pale yellow, at the nose a pure call of the sea, fresh and agile, the rhythm is outstanding, it moves with grace and elegance with citrus, passion fruit, grapefruit and cedar notes, zesty. On the palate a hint of green underlined by herbs, rosemary, bay leaves, wild peppermint with long length. Terroir driven, marine and Kars. |
