Chardonnay Veneto IGT, History and Characteristics

Chardonnay

Veneto IGT

The grapes are vinified as a white wine, thanks to a soft pressing carried out immediately after their arrival at the winery. The must is cooled to 10 °C (50 °F) so that it becomes naturally clear; the alcoholic fermentation is then triggered off with the addition of selected yeasts and is maintained at a temperature of 16 - 18 °C (61 - 64 °F).
