This wonderful sparkling Chardonnay comes from a twenty year old vineyard planted over clay and limestone in the Colli Euganei. Whilst half of the fruit was pressed directly, the remainder was macerated for five days, and after fermentation the blend rested in vat until the following spring before being moved to bottle with a little juice from the same harvest. The resulting wine is a gorgeous, hazy yellow in the glass, its bubbles carry notes of stone fruits, chalk and minerals. A vibrant col fondo from one of the masters of the style.
