Rivera Castel del Monte Chardonnay Preludio n.1 2022
It was the first Chardonnay produced in Apulia and perhaps in the whole of southern Italy. It represents the result of the long and patient work of experimentation and adaptation to the environment conducted by Rivera in the 1980s to transplant Chardonnay to the Castel del Monte area. Alongside the merits of this noble French grape variety, Chardonnay has proven to be able to give further ones in the Mediterranean climate.
