Straw yellow color with green highlights, aromas of stone fruits and notes of herbs is under the label Vette San Leonardo Chardonnay. On the mouth we have structure, complexity and minerality. Its acidity makes it cool and fresh. The aftertaste consists of hints of citrus and spices. You could enjoy it now, but also cellar it for 2 more years. You could pair it with white meat, cold cuts and soft cheeses.

The soul of San Leonardo is embodied in the Guerrieri Gonzaga family, winegrowers here as far back as the 18th century. The family motto is “Belli ac Pacis Amator” (lover of war and peace) and it may be difficult to imagine it today, but back then, the Terzi – the family’s original surname – men were warriors. A white dry wine originating in Trentino, Italy. It owes its name to the peaks that exist around the vineyards. The age of the vines is from 6-15 years. A Sauvignon Blanc that is fermented in stainless steel tanks for 5 months where cold fermentation takes place and frequent batonnage enhances its aroma and body. The maturation in the bottle continues for another 3 months.
