Borgo Maragliano NV Brut Chardonnay (Piedmont)

Country: Italy / Brut
Variety: Chardonnay Piedmont

Here’s a Chardonnay-based sparkler from Piedmont that opens with bright tones of lemon and sweet grapefruit followed by yeasty tones of freshly baked bread. There’s some bitter almond as well, which adds tartness to the finish.
