WINE DESCRIPTION

Colterenzio (Schreckbichl) Altkirch Chardonnay is a premium white wine that boasts a rich and complex flavor profile. Produced by Colterenzio Winery, a renowned producer in the Alto Adige region of Italy, this wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Altkirch vineyard. The vineyard's unique features, including its high altitude and mineral-rich soil, contribute to the wine's distinctive character.

This wine is a perfect choice for those who appreciate a well-crafted, fresh Chardonnay.
