NOTES This wine comes from a single vineyard where two vines cohabit, Chardonnay and Carricante, which make up the finished wine. Chardonnay gives this wine aromatic richness and roundness, which allow it to express its organoleptic characteristics already in the spring following the harvest; Carricante focuses on acidity, complexity and strength that allow it to evolve over time and preserve freshness and aromatic intensity
