WINE DESCRIPTION

Massolino Chardonnay Langhe is a premium white wine produced by the renowned Massolino winery in the Langhe region of Italy. The vineyards are located in the hilly areas of Serralunga d'Alba, where the soil is rich in limestone and clay, providing ideal growing conditions for the Chardonnay grape. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including fermentation in oak barrels and aging on the lees, resulting in a complex and elegant wine with notes of citrus, apple, and vanilla. The wine is medium-bodied with a refreshing acidity and a long, lingering finish, making it a perfect pairing for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.
