CITRA CHARDONNAY IGP 6 CS

This Chardonnay Terre di Chieti IGP Bisanzio proposed by Codice Citra is a simple, but pleasant, white wine to be served throughout the meal. When on the table, of course, it dominates the sea and its fruits. Served chilled, it can also be a valid alternative to the classic bubbly aperitif. It’s a 90% cert that guests will suggest continuing with the same glass once dinner is served.

It is made from pure Chardonnay grapes, harvested when fully ripe in vineyards in the vicinity of Ortona, in the province of Chieti. Soft pressing and cold maceration to obtain a limpid must which, once decanted, can be sent to fermentation, strictly at a controlled temperature to preserve all the goodness of its aromas, in stainless steel tanks. The result is a delicately perfumed white wine with a brilliant straw colour. The nose reveals well the warmth of its land of origin. The Chardonnay, in fact, shows notes of tropical fruit and yellow flesh. In the mouth, however, it is above all fresh and well balanced in all its components.
