White
Le Rondini
By Cascina Guido Berta, Nizza, Piemonte, Italy
The estate's barrique-aged Chardonnay: part-fermented in steel, finished with 8 months in barrique.
Tasting notes
Bright straw yellow. Pleasantly fruity on the nose, fresh and fragrant with floral notes and sweet exotic fruit. Inviting on the palate, with a good balance between sweetness and mineral notes.
