Monteverro's Chardonnay is an exciting and multi-faceted expression of Tuscan white wine culture and combines Burgundian finesse with the radiance of the Maremma. The grapes come from carefully tended plots on limestone and clay near Capalbio, where the coastal microclimate with warm days and cool nights offers the Chardonnay an ideal ripening window. Vinification was carried out with Burgundian standards: slow fermentation in French barriques - some new, some used - regular bâtonnage and fine lees storage for around ten months.

Brilliant straw yellow with golden reflections. Fine notes of lemon zest, white peach, roasted hazelnuts, brioche and chalky minerality on the nose. Precise, cool and yet powerful on the palate, with precise acidity, silky texture and savoury length. The wood is perfectly integrated and carries without dominating. Monteverro's Chardonnay is a wine of great nobility every year, combining Mediterranean maturity with stylistic clarity - a white wine that does not adapt, but redefines standards. SUPERIORE.DE

"A delicate, varietal but complex wine. On the nose, it displays the typical aromas of lime with a hint of seaweed, white pepper, lemon peel and papaya. On the palate, it is light to medium-bodied, silky, with a zesty acidity, a dense finish and a savoury, elegant aftertaste." James Suckling
