- White Wine
- Grape Variety: Chardonnay
- Case Size: 6 x 75cl
- ABV: 13.5% vol
- Bright white with a soft, full-bodied texture. The bouquet reveals citrus and floral aromas, complemented by hints of butter, mango, and yellow plum on vanilla. On the palate, it is harmonious, well-defined by freshness, with enhanced flavors and a long, elegant finish.
- Grown on hilly, calcareous-chalky soils at 250–400 m altitude, the hand-harvested grapes are destemmed, crushed, and lightly pressed. After natural sedimentation, selected yeasts drive fermentation in stainless steel before finishing in oak barrels. The wine spends 2–3 months on lees with weekly bâtonnage and 8–12 months in bottle.
- A Sicilian Chardonnay of remarkable purity and depth, marrying its calcareous terroir with careful oak and lees aging — vibrant, expressive, and refined, perfect for showcasing the island’s distinctive character.
Description
Praised as a Chardonnay that is first Sicilian, its bright white colour reflects its origins – the source of all potential, every development, primal purity, and the entirety of colours, like Cristo di Campobello’s chalky soil. Grown on hilly, mainly calcareous and chalky terrain with dark patches, 250–400 metres above sea level. Hand-harvested into small crates, the grapes are destemmed and crushed. After light pressing, the free-run wine undergoes natural sedimentation at low temperature. Selected yeasts initiate alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel before it finishes in oak barrels. It spends 2–3 months on lees with weekly bâtonnage, and 8–12 months in bottle. Fragrant, with citrus and floral aromas plus hints of butter, mango, and yellow plum on vanilla. Soft and full-bodied, it’s well-defined by freshness and enhanced flavours in harmony, with a long finish.
