Description
What kind of wine it is
La Spinetta Chardonnay Lidia is a still organic white wine made from the vinification of Chardonnay. An authentic expression of the Piedmontese territory, it displays a complex and balanced flavour profile. On the nose, it offers notes of apple, pear, pineapple, honey and almond. The palate reveals a pronounced mineral freshness, enriched by lively hints of citrus and white flowers that precede a marked savouriness. The elegant structure culminates in a long and creamy finish, making the glass ideal for an intriguing evolution over time.
Where it comes from
The grapes are grown in vineyards located in Mango, Piedmont, at around five hundred metres above sea level. This hillside position defines a style characterised by aromatic clarity, vibrant drive and a clear mineral imprint. The limited production fully enhances the connection with its place of origin. The project comes to life thanks to the dedication of La Spinetta, a winery always focused on soil care through a rigorous organic and sustainable approach.
How it is produced
Alcoholic fermentation takes place in used French oak barrels. The wine then matures for eighteen months in wood and is further refined for six months in the bottle, key steps in consolidating its flavour definition. Careful processing preserves a well-balanced acidic tension, keeping the fruit's energy intact. Served at a temperature of 10-12 °C, it enhances fish dishes, cheeses, poultry and vegetarian recipes. Its full-bodied sip also pairs masterfully with structured preparations, enhancing intense flavours such as rabbit liver or a classic Parmesan risotto.
