BERGAMASCA BIANCO IGP - BIO - LOMBARDIA

Fresh and immensely enjoyable, this wine surprises with its straightforwardness and ease of enjoyment. A truly pleasant Chardonnay that defies expectations, offering vibrant freshness and balanced acidity. It’s the Chardonnay you didn’t see coming—elegant yet unpretentious, perfect for any occasion.

Grape variety

100% Chardonnay.

Vineyards of origin

The ideal grapes for this wine are carefully selected from all the company’s vineyards at the Le Corne estate, located in the municipality of Grumello del Monte. These vineyards, perched on the hills above Grumello, benefit from excellent and constant ventilation, allowing for the perfect ripening of the bunches.

Soil: Of calcareous-clay nature, with fluvio-glacial sediments, this soil is ideal for viticulture. It ensures wines that are structured, fresh, and marked by a distinct minerality.

Training system: Guyot.

Season in the field: Meticulous vineyard selection is followed by pre-destemming sorting and manual selection on the sorting table. The grapes are hand-harvested in small crates to preserve the integrity of the fruit.

Average yield: 75 q/ha.

Vinification

Gentle pressing with a brief cold maceration is followed by alcoholic fermentation of the free-run juice at controlled temperatures. Approximately 10% of the wine is aged in oak barrels for 6-8 months, while the other 90% is kept in stainless steel tanks for 6 months at low temperatures in a controlled atmosphere (inert gas).

Tasting notes

Pale straw-yellow in color, with intense aromas of white peach that evolve into more mature exotic fruit notes. On the palate, it is full, dry, with delicate acidity and good and pleasant sapidity.

Pairings

Pairs well with mildly spiced cured meats and roast meats. Surprisingly good with grilled red meats or stews. Excellent alongside medium to long-aged cheeses. Also ideal as a meditation wine, perfect for enhancing conversation and conviviality.

Alcohol content and serving temperature

Alcohol content: 13,5 % Vol.

Serving Temperature: 08 – 10 °C.

Awards

GOLD – Mostra Nazionale dei Vini Pramaggiore 2019
