The 'Michael' Chardonnay IGT is a white wine made from 100% Chardonnay.
The Chardonnay from this winery is a true piece of craftsmanship that excites the senses and delights the taste buds. Made from 100% Chardonnay grapes, it comes from an idyllic 1.5-hectare vineyard located at an altitude of 118 metres above sea level. The vines, planted in 2005, are bathed in the soft glow of both morning and evening sun, thanks to their eastern and western exposure.
This Chardonnay is distinguished by the particular soil on which the grapes thrive - a mixture of alluvial and clayey soils, which provides a medium texture. The training system of pruned cordons with 8-10 buds per cane and a planting density of 4,400 vines per hectare results in a limited yield of 60 quintals per hectare.
Harvesting begins in early September and is done by hand, using rigorous selection. In the cellar, the grapes undergo a careful vinification process. The different parcels of grapes ferment separately in steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 14-16°C for 20-25 days. The wine then matures 'sur lie' in French oak barrels for 9 months.
When poured, the intense straw-yellow colour immediately catches the eye. The nose is seduced by aromas of ripe pineapple, vanilla and subtle hints of apricot. The palate is aromatic and has a striking freshness thanks to the intense acidity, which is beautifully balanced. The wine offers an elegant and refined experience.
Serve this Chardonnay at a temperature of 10°C to bring out its full palate. It pairs excellently with dishes such as fish, white meat and semi-mature cheeses. For real enthusiasts, it is definitely worth trying it with the local "Nostrano del Brenta" cheese. A traditional dish we heartily recommend serving with this wine is the "Baccalà alla Vicentina," a preparation of salted cod in the Vicenza manner.
With only 4,000 bottles produced, this Chardonnay offers a unique and exclusive experience for true connoisseurs.
Goed ontwikkelde wijn. In de neus best fris, in de smaak echt wel wat voller met tonen van vanille en karamel. Verrassend!
