Denomination: Toscana IGTĀ Chardonnay
Alcohol Content: 14% Vol.
Grape Variety: 100% Chardonnay
The ChardāĆ has a straw yellow color with golden reļ¬ections. Its scent is distinguished by exotic notes such as maracuja, pineapple, citrus and touches of sweet spices, from which a pleasant hint of vanilla emerges. In the mouth it is well structured, soft, mineral, with a nice freshness, characterized by a pleasantly sapid ļ¬nish.
The ChardāĆ relies on the exclusive use of a great white grape variety, the Chardonnay. Like all the wines of La Nascosta, it is produced from the Estate vineyards, in the heart of the Val dāOrcia, at an altitude of about 410 meters. The vineyard, of about 1.6 hectares, is oriented East/West. It stands on clayey soils, very rich in calcareous lithoids and sediments of marine origin from the Mio-Pliocene age, but also in volcanic rocks linked to the Pleistocene activity of Monte Amiata. The characteristics of the soil and the techniques of precision used to achieve the highest quality result in a very low yield, of between 45 and 60 quintals per hectare.
Ā La Nascosta was established byĀ Antonio Mastrojanni, who was among the ļ¬rst winemakers in Montalcino, where he managed the Mastrojanni Winery Estate from 1980 to 2003, producing some of the most acclaimed āBrunello di Montalcinoā wines. Although the family Estate was acquired in 2008 by the āIlly Coffee Groupā, the name āBrunello Mastrojanniā was maintained and continues to be a point of reference for the entire appellation, regularly obtaining prestigious awards and recognition.
