Chardonnay Aere Cantina San Zenone

Another international variety in Molise is the Chardonnay, whose name is Chardonnay IGT Terre degli Osci. This variety adapts itself very easily to each territory and climate and here in Molise, the wines made with this grape are very interesting. The Chardonnay Aere Terre degli Osci, produced by San Zenone winery, is made only in its basic version: a clean, fresh, fragrant wine that is sold an year after being bottled. It is a modern wine, whose reductive fermentation is carried out at a low temperature. Once ended, the Chardonnay is then poured and its 16-month ageing in steel tanks can start. Frequent batonnage are carried out which put the fine lees back to the surface allowing the body of the wine to become more complex. When it is considered ready, the wine is filtered, bottled and released on the market after 6 months.
