Description
In a nutshell:
Forget big, buttery Chardonnay - this one's all about zesty freshness and a streak of minerality, with Friuli's cool climate giving it that bright, clean edge.
The lowdown:
Chardonnay might be a relative newcomer to the vineyards between Venice and Trieste, but it's settled in pretty well - especially when it comes to making fresh, zippy styles like this. Here we've got melon and citrus on the nose, almost like a fruit salad with a bit of warm apple thrown in. No oak, just clean, pure fruit flavours with a streak of minerality and a bright, zesty finish. A dependable, easy-going wine with plenty of appeal, it's fresh, effortlessly enjoyable, and a fail-safe choice.
The Producer:
Right on the border between Friuli and Veneto, Tenute Tomasella has been quietly making good, unpretentious wines since 1965. Its a family-run outfit with 30 hectares of vines encompassing the best of both regions, which means their wines have a bit of Friuli's crisp elegance and a touch of Veneto's warmth. It's a pretty decent location for a vineyard, all things considered, for making some interesting wines.
When to drink:
An 'any occasion' white if ever there was one, this is spot on with lighter fish or chicken dishes - fresh and zesty enough to lift the flavours without muscling in on the main event.
