This Chardonnay, with its elegant and structured profile, fermented in small oak barrels, reveals hints of nashi pear, honeydew melon, orange zest and enveloping notes of brioche. On the palate, it reveals a precise balance with a distinct wet stone minerality, closing with a savoury finish ideal for pairing with seafood pasta dishes, shellfish and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes are grown in Lombardy, in the historic Franciacorta area, from \u003cstrong\u003ecertified organic vineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e located in the municipalities of Erbusco, Passirano and Provaglio d’Iseo. The vines have an average age of thirty-five years and are rooted in soils that provide deep aromatic complexity and expressive precision. Rigorous agronomic management encourages the development of sound fruit, ideal for reflecting the true characteristics of the \u003cstrong\u003eterroir of origin\u003c\/strong\u003e. These pedoclimatic conditions impart a \u003cstrong\u003enatural gustatory tension\u003c\/strong\u003e to the harvest, accentuating the fresh and mineral character of the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction follows the Ca’ del Bosco Method, starting with manual harvesting and the washing of the bunches using a hydromassage system. Pressing in the \u003cstrong\u003etotal absence of oxygen\u003c\/strong\u003e allows the free-run juice to be isolated, which ferments in small \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. Ageing on the lees lasts nine months and involves frequent bâtonnage and malolactic fermentation. The different expressions then form a careful \u003cstrong\u003eblend\u003c\/strong\u003e, bottled by gravity to avoid oxidative shock. A resting period of three and a half years defines the absolute finesse of the flavour profile.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated in 1983, this \u003cstrong\u003e100% Chardonnay\u003c\/strong\u003e took the name “Selva della Tesa” in 2019 to pay homage to its vineyard of origin. The rigorous \u003cstrong\u003eCa’ del Bosco Method\u003c\/strong\u003e preserves the quality of the grapes, which are carefully washed and then processed through pressing in the absence of oxygen and gravity bottling. This meticulous care prevents oxidative stress, shaping a white wine of excellence over three and a half years of ageing, awarded the \u003cstrong\u003e5 Grappoli Bibenda\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ca del Bosco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47762535973035,"sku":"62545","price":79.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/ca-del-bosco-selva-della-tesa-chardonnay-2021_62545_1_5c9f3b9b-3a9d-41fe-b671-a115ca69e214.webp?v=1789384280","url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/products\/ca-del-bosco-selva-della-tesa-chardonnay-2021","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
