Descrizione

Chardonnay has the wonderful ability to adapt well to different soils and climates. A generous grape that has always been cultivated well almost everywhere but which in Friuli, on the banks of the Isonzo, has found a perfect place to grow optimally. The refinement is carried out in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature.

In the glass it shows a beautiful straw yellow color. The nose perceives fine and elegant aromas with fruity and floral hints of yellow apple and broom flowers. Wine with good structure, balanced.

An extremely versatile drink, perfect as an aperitif and ideal with elegant dishes. It goes perfectly with molluscs and crustaceans, carpaccio or tuna tartare and swordfish. To try absolutely with fruit, even exotic.

Winery history

The estate’s earliest documentary records date to 1499; over the centuries it has maintained an uninterrupted winemaking presence. In the 20th century the property was acquired by the Bennati family, and today the estate is run by the next generation, which has led a refresh of the brand identity without losing its connection to the historical archive and local tradition.

Production philosophy

The estate emphasizes respect for the land and the enhancement of individual parcels: cultivation follows vineyard zoning and protects the soil’s identity, while in the cellar the approach seeks to interpret with balance the character of the different crus. Alongside wine production, the estate also values the tradition of in‑house distillation.

Terroir and vineyards

The estate stretches from the alluvial plain along the Isonzo to the hills of the Collio, encompassing vineyards located in the Collio DOC and Friuli Isonzo DOC. The estate notes the area is characterized by varied microclimates and soils that contribute to distinct wine profiles.
