The eye-catching Chardonnay has a beautiful straw-yellow color with hints of genepi. It expresses a varied aromatic palette all its own. On the nose, aromas of exotic fruits, and on the palate, fresh pineapple and citrus notes. A flattering wine distinguished by its freshness, fruitiness and friendliness. A treat to whet the appetite.

| The estate |
The 100-hectare estate lies 20 km north of the town of Crotone. The vineyards are irrigated by the Viravo river and caressed by the breezes of the Ionian Sea. Albino Bianchi, who comes from an old Italian family very close to nature, decided to found La Pizzuta del Principe in the early 90’s to be able to work the grapes of his land and produce quality wines with unique aromas. The estate is in organic conversion. |
| Viticulture |
Hand-picking takes place in the second week of October, at night, to avoid oxidation of the berries. The grapes are pre-selected in the vineyard.
|
| Winemaking |
Gentle pressing followed by temperature-controlled alcoholic fermentation. After bottling, the wine undergoes a further two months of maturation before being released on the market. |
| Food & wine suggestions |
