Gradis’ciutta Chardonnay

”wine maker notes obtained exclusively from chardonnay a french vine (champagne and burgundy) inported at the end of the 1800s which was initially confused with pinot bianco so much so that according to reference of 1901 it was not catalogued separately until the post war period. Chardonnay has been present at the gradis’ciutta estate since 1974 adapting to the clay marne amidst the ponca and opoca soils from which these grapes come. Tasting notes color straw yellow with golden tints. Nose clear and intense recalling notes of apple banana acacia flowers and honey with notes of vanilla. Palate soft and elegant it opens with a perfect symmetry to the aromatics and closes with an evident flavor of vanilla.” – azienda agricola gradis’ciutta
