NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Fèlsina I Sistri Chardonnay is a delightful and inviting white wine with aromas of ripe pear, green apple, and honeysuckle.The palate is rich and creamy, with a bright acidity, and flavors of green apple, white peach, and lemon zest. The finish is long and smooth, with a hint of butterscotch and a lingering citrusy freshness. All in all, this is a classic example of a Chardonnay from the region, and an excellent choice for a dinner party or special occasion.
