Chardonnay Diaol Trentino DOC 2020 Magnum - Lavis

The Chardonnay Diaol Trentino DOC from Lavis is a white wine that beautifully embodies the characteristics of the Pressano territory, renowned for its quality wines. The choice of the Chardonnay grape, known for its versatility and ability to best express the peculiarities of the terroir where it is cultivated, contributes to creating a wine with considerable olfactory and taste complexity. The aroma of this Chardonnay, with its notes of yellow plums and nectarines, is enriched by mineral and salty nuances, giving the wine an intense and intriguing olfactory profile. These aromas are typical of a high-quality Chardonnay, where fruitiness harmoniously blends with more complex and layered elements. On the palate, the wine reveals a well-balanced structure, characterized by a tension in taste and defined flavors. Salinity and crispness dominate, leading to a rich and persistent finish that leaves a lasting and pleasant impression. These characteristics make it particularly suitable for dishes requiring a wine with good body and a certain complexity. Aging in French oak tonneaux, which concerns about 30% of the wine, adds further levels of complexity, enriching the bouquet with light notes of wood and vanilla and improving the structure and longevity of the wine. This Chardonnay is ideal for accompanying a variety of dishes. Its elegance and richness of flavors make it perfect for refined appetizers, tarte tatin, and seafood dishes, where its structure and acidity can balance the richness of the food and enhance the flavors. In summary, the Chardonnay Diaol Trentino DOC from Lavis is an excellent example of how an international grape variety can uniquely and distinctively express itself in a specific terroir, creating a wine that is both a pleasure to drink and an excellent gastronomic accompaniment.
