ChardonnayVallée D’Aoste DOC

(1 customer review)

This international grape variety, grown partly in the vineyards of Quart and partly in Saint-Christophe, always with a low environmental impact, gives us a wine that fully expresses the unique character of our Aosta Valley terroir.

We use yeasts selected right here on the estate, which gives the wine a distinctly soft character while keeping the good minerality that helps it age well.

On tasting you’ll find the fragrance of a wine from another era, wonderfully easy to drink — and above all, no headache, even if you’re tempted to pour one glass too many.
