Freedom Peace Love Chardonnay

2009 Puglia Chardonnay

The Happy Hippy Freedom Peace Love Chardonnay from the Puglia region is an enchanting expression of this beloved varietal, showcasing a delightful balance in its profile. With its lovely pale straw color capturing the eye, this wine offers a pleasing medium body that is effortlessly enjoyable. The acidity is bright and invigorating, enhancing the overall experience and making it incredibly food-friendly. On the palate, expect prominent fruit intensity, leading with notes of ripe apple and pear that harmoniously mingle with subtle hints of citrus. This Chardonnay is dry, allowing the minerality characteristic of the Puglia terroir to shine through, while its soft and well-integrated tannins provide a gentle structure, making this wine a true celebration of harmony and peace in every sip.

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.
