Description
What kind of wine it is
Chardonnay GD is a still white wine with an intense straw yellow colour and golden highlights. Its aromatic profile reveals clear notes of white peach, citrus fruits and broom, blending with toasted nuances and hints of peanut butter. On the palate, Chardonnay is soft and enveloping, characterised by excellent freshness and pronounced savouriness. The sip finishes with a long aftertaste, accompanied by subtle spicy hints. Thanks to its ageing potential of up to ten years, this white wine perfectly enhances fish dishes and cheese selections, when served at an ideal temperature between twelve and fourteen degrees.
Where it comes from
This wine originates from the Langhe area, a renowned wine-growing region in Piedmont. It is produced by Damilano, a historic winery founded at the end of the nineteenth century, which manages its vineyards with a biological and sustainable agricultural approach. The geographical origin distinctly defines the character of the product, giving Chardonnay a well-defined aromatic profile and a structural balance that reflects the pedoclimatic peculiarities of this area in north-western Italy.
How it is produced
Production is based on a rigorous process of temperature-controlled fermentation, maintained between sixteen and eighteen degrees for twenty days. This technical protocol is essential to preserve the aromatic definition of the grape variety, keeping the fruity and floral components intact. Temperature management allows for a still white with solid structural integrity, able to balance tactile softness with acidic tension. Attention to production details results in a glass with an enveloping flavour profile, supported by a consistently savoury texture.
