Descrizione

The Chardonnay Alto Adige DOC from Tenuta J Hofstatter expresses the appellation's character with restraint. With a straw-yellow color and greenish reflections, it opens on the nose with notes of green apple, pear and delicate citrus, accompanied by light floral hints and a touch of minerality that lightens the aromatic profile. On the palate it shows freshness and balance, with a saline texture that supports a medium body and a pleasant, unobtrusive finish. The overall impression is harmonious, with fruity echoes and slight herbal notes recalling the restrained aesthetic of regional white wines.

This white is suitable for various occasions: from aperitif to not overly elaborate fish dishes, light white meats, fresh cheeses and vegetable-based vegetarian preparations. It is recommended to serve it chilled, around 10–12 °C, in a wide glass that enhances the aromas and allows balanced breathing of the wine. It is a fitting choice for those seeking a fine, measured Chardonnay, representative of Tenuta J Hofstatter's productive sensibility in Alto Adige, ideal for accompanying everyday convivial meals.
