Descrizione

The Chardonnay Alto Adige DOC by Alois Lageder represents an elegant expression of the grape grown in the sunny vineyards of Alto Adige, one of the most suitable areas for this white wine in Italy. Here, thanks to the cool climate and the calcareous-clay soils, a fresh and vibrant wine is born, with a balanced and refined character.

The winemaking method includes careful fermentation in stainless steel and a short aging on fine lees, which adds complexity and creaminess without losing the typical freshness of the grape. In the glass it appears bright straw yellow, while on the nose it opens with aromas of ripe apple, white peach, and light floral notes of acacia.

On the palate, it releases a pleasant minerality, good structure, and delicate hints of almond that invite further tasting. It is ideal paired with delicate fish dishes, shellfish, and fresh cheeses, perfect for those looking for a sophisticated and versatile white.
