The Sanct Valentin Chardonnay from the renowned St. Michael Eppan winery is one of the most expressive and acclaimed white wines from Alto Adige. This wine is part of the prestigious Sanct Valentin line, first launched in 1986, and represents the pinnacle of quality and innovation from the winery.

Year after year, the Sanct Valentin Chardonnay stands out for its rich and complex profile. The grapes, strictly handpicked from vineyards at high elevations, benefit from an ideal microclimate, which contributes to developing the intense flavors and marked structure of this wine. After fermentation, the wine matures in barriques, which adds notes of vanilla and toast that blend harmoniously with the natural aromas of apple, peach, and citrus.

In appearance, the Sanct Valentin Chardonnay presents a bright straw-yellow color with golden highlights. On the nose, vibrant aromas of white-fleshed fruit emerge, enriched by subtle nuances of butter and sweet spices, thanks to the elegant aging in wood. On the palate, the wine is full and enveloping, with fresh acidity ensuring a perfect balance and a long aromatic persistence.

An ideal sophisticated aperitif, this Chardonnay is also an excellent companion to refined dishes, especially those based on fish, seafood, and poultry, but it can also be surprising with risotto and truffle pasta dishes.

Serve at a temperature of about 10-12°C to fully appreciate the range of flavors and aromas. With aging potential that can extend for several years, the Sanct Valentin Chardonnay is also a great choice for wine lovers who wish to explore the evolution of the wine over time.
