The Ionis Agave is a delightful Chardonnay from the Puglia region. This white wine embodies a medium body, refreshing acidity, and a prominent fruit intensity. The Chardonnay grapes used in crafting this wine lend it a beautiful balance between citrus notes and a hint of tropical fruit flavors. The Ionis Agave is elegantly dry, making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate a crisp and flavorful white wine experience.

Region:

Puglia

The heel of Italy's "boot," sunny Puglia (the "g" is silent), is famed for its olive oils, almonds and of course, its rich, full-bodied wines. Although dry and intensely hot in the summer, Puglia has coastlines on three sides, providing cool Mediterranean breezes to alleviate the daytime heat. Primitivo (known in the US as Zinfandel) does well here, with other popular red varieties including Sangiovese and Negroamaro. But it is not all about reds in Puglia: the local Fiano grape produces gloriously nutty, tropical-flavored white, while Falanghina makes intensely fruity wines with citrus blossom notes.
