Myricae is a still Piemonte Chardonnay DOC from the estate's old vineyard; English and Italian sources disagree on vinification and tasting details.

Tasting notes

Pale straw yellow. Apricot jam, honey and hazelnut butter on the nose. Soft and round on the palate, with a note of fresh mint on the finish.
