Ventisquero Reserva Chardonnay 2022

This wine is a bright, pale yellow. The nose is elegant and expressive with prominent aromas of tropical fruit, such as papayas and pineapple, complemented by soft notes of vanilla and dried fruits contributed by the ageing in French oak. This is a well-rounded wine with good body and delicious acidity. The finish is soft and dominated by tropical fruit and smooth vanilla.

Fermentation: 100% of this wine was fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve the varietal aromas.

Ageing: After fermentation, the wine was aged over its lees for 6 months and battonage was used to gently move it so as to maximize the contribution made by the wine coming into contact with the fine sediment. 25% of the wine was aged in French oak for the same period of time as the part that retained its fruity component.

Best served at between 8°C and 10°C, this wine pairs well with oily fish, cheese, risotto, shellfish, pasta and white meat.
