ORGANOLEPTIC CHARACTERISTICS
A unique “contact”, where the elements of the oak embrace beautifully the primary floral and fruity aromas of Chardonnay.
The alcoholic fermentation takes place in French Ermitage 500 ltr barrels, where the wine ages for 6 months with the presence of wine lees. It is characterized by its complexity and intensity in the nose, where vanilla, nuts and tobacco combine with aromas of exotic fruits and citrus.
The acidity is balanced and harmonized with the whole,whereas a fruity aftertaste of long duration and the oak aroma fade beautifully and sweetly.
