Abruzzo’s attempt at a biodynamic white Burgundy - and quite a successful one!
Burgundian nose - elegant, fresh, quite cool. Yellow stone fruit, a bit of golden delicious apple, subtly oaked. Very inviting.
On the palate this is fresh, vibrant, just a bit funky - a bit of bruised apple, some yellow stone fruit, nice mineral backbone adding complexity & freshness.
This is really good - never would have guessed they could make such an elegant Chardonnay so far south in Italy.
