Wine Description:
Tenuta Margon Villa Margon Chardonnay is youthful, part barrel aged, refreshing dry white wine with notes of grapefruit, lemon, and almond. Made by the Lunelli Family, who are perhaps better known for their Ferrari Sparkling wine from Trentdoc, this wine serves as a good example of the quality potential of this cooler northern Italian region. The base of the wine is Chardonnay, usually not less than 80%, with Pinot Bianco and in some years, Sauvignon Blanc, making up the balance. The wine is cool fermented with a small proportion matured in old oak to add textural interest. This is a refreshing glass of wine and a good choice for those seeking the familiarity of an international variety with an unmistakeable Italian lean.

Try with chicken based pasta dishes and drink within a few years of the vintage.

G. B. Burlotto Viridis Langhe Sauvignon is a meticulous creation by the esteemed producer G. B. Burlotto, hailing from Langhe in the Piedmont region in Italy. Harvested by hand, the focus is on preserving fruit integrity, enabling a selective process in the cellar. After destemming and a gentle press, certain vintages may undergo controlled skin maceration. The must undergoes cold static cleaning, leading to an alcoholic fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature, preserving the grape's innate aromatics. Malolactic fermentation is deftly avoided through refrigeration, allowing refinement on fine fermentation lees in stainless steel tanks. Bottling typically occurs in late winter or early spring, resulting in a Sauvignon Blanc that beautifully balances purity of fruit and aromatic complexity.
