IGT Toscana Chardonnay 2021
Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes. It is a fresh and crisp wine with great elegance and balance that marries an endless acidity. The Vinolok glass stopper keeps the freshness and floral notes unaltered.
The 2021 vintage
2021 was a year that saw very particular weather patterns, which ultimately encouraged the growth of high-quality grapes that will eventually be reflected in the wine.
Spring and summer temperatures remained below average, allowing the gradual development of complex aromas, resulting in a broad and delicate bouquet. In order to preserve this aromatic complexity during the vinification process, we lowered fermentation temperatures and minimised contact with oxygen.
The summer drought was well compensated by abundant rainfall in May, which allowed the plants to maintain a good state of hydration, resulting in homogeneous veraison and ripening. The water balance was maintained by deep root systems.
Tasting notes
“The aromatic details of this wine say a lot about the vintage climate, early-onset but with still a great acidity component. The wine is lemon with greenish reflections, the nose expresses fresh floral notes enhanced with constant a hint of citrus fruit, such as grapefruit and orange peel. The great minerality, combined with a good acidity, embody the possibility of evolution of this wine. ” – Cecilia Leoneschi, October 2021

Food Pairing
Line-Caught Sea Bream, Kitchen Garden-Grown Tomatoes, Wild Clams
The delicacy of the sea bream and the salinity of the clams enhances our pure Chardonnay, dismantling the wine into its essential nuances. The soft fruitiness, white flowers and the grape’s trademark acidity are lifted harmoniously by the velvety consistency of the estate-grown tomatoes and the dish’s complexity.
