2009 Chardonnay Piodilei

Bright medium yellow with a gold tinge. Exotic nectarine, fresh apricot and mango on the very ripe nose, with notes of honey, nuts and marzipan emerging with air. Rich and high in alcohol, but at the same time quite dry and savory, with plenty of fruit. Finishes with a floral element. This wine was vinified and aged in new barrels and went through partial malolactic fermentation.
