This wonderful sparkling Chardonnay comes from a thirty year old vineyard planted over clay and limestone in the Colli Euganei. The grapes were macerated on the skins for three weeks and the wine rested in vat until the following spring before being moved to bottle with a little juice from the same harvest. The resulting wine pours a hazy shade of amber in the glass, with gentle bubbles that carry notes of stone fruits, chalk and minerals. A vibrant col fondo from one of the masters of the style.
