The Chardonnay Alto Adige DOC Marna from Girlan represents a refined example of the oenological elegance of the South Tyrol region. Coming from vineyards located at high altitude, where the cool climate favors slow and harmonious ripening, this Chardonnay best expresses its Mediterranean character with alpine influences.

The grape variety, carefully cultivated, produces a wine with balanced structure, characterized by vibrant acidity and fruity notes of green apple, pear, and light hints of citrus. The aging, often carried out in large oak barrels and cement tanks, helps to provide complexity and a pleasant roundness without overpowering the typical freshness.

On the palate, an elegant persistence emerges, with mineral hints that refer to the mountainous terroir of the area. Perfect paired with fish dishes, shellfish, and white meats, this Chardonnay embodies the purity and finesse of Alto Adige.
