Country: Italy / Pietrabianca
Variety: Chardonnay Southern Italy
Winery: Tormaresca / Castel del Monte
This edition of Pietrabianca (a creamy Chardonnay from Puglia in southern Italy) shows nice integration between its fruit and oak elements. Both parties play a leading role in creating a rich, soft white wine with lingering tones of apricot and toasted almond.
