Product Notes

Cantele Teresa Manara IGT Salento Chardonnay is an elegant and sophisticated Italian white wine hailing from the sunny Salento peninsula. It presents a brilliant straw-yellow hue with a bounty of ripe tropical fruit notes on the nose. The palate unfolds layers of opulent flavours, boasting luscious pineapple, mellow apple, and a hint of vanilla, alongside a perfectly balanced acidity. Demonstrating the excellence of the Chardonnay varietal, this wine offers a full body, long finish, and a delightful buttery texture. Perfect to pair with seafood or poultry for a lavish dining experience.

Tasting Notes

Colour - Intense straw yellow with nuanced golden and green tones. Nose - Spicy aromas emerge immediately on the nose, giving way to a rainbow of overflowing floral and fruit aromas. Acacia and vine flowers together with local and exotic, ripe fruit. Palate - Silky in the mouth, velvety and mellifluous, with freshness and sweet spices imparted by selected wood used during aging. The finish wins over the drinker with its length and its terroir expression.
