Garganega

2011 Veneto Garganega; Chardonnay

Parolvini Garganega is a delightful white wine that beautifully showcases the potential of the Garganega and Chardonnay varietals. Hailing from the renowned Veneto region, this vintage exudes a pale straw color with glimmers of golden hues, hinting at its elegance. On the palate, it offers a medium body that is well-balanced, presenting a refreshing brightness and a smooth mouthfeel. The acidity is lively and invigorating, complementing the wine's fruit intensity, which comes through as prominent notes of stone fruits and citrus, inviting a sense of zestfulness. As you savor each sip, subtle complexities unfold, revealing soft and well-integrated tannins that add a touch of structure without overwhelming the overall experience. This wine is bone dry, making it an ideal companion for seafood dishes or light salads, and it is sure to impress with its charming character and delightful finish.

Veneto

The Veneto (pronounced VEN-uh-toh) super-region in northeastern Italy is the engine room of Italian wine. The area sweeps inland of the Gulf of Venice from the Slovenian border west to Verona. It is a transitional region, sitting between the Alpine north and the drier central lands; Veneto enjoys a balmy Mediterranean climate that makes it a haven for vineyards. Veneto is famous for its prosecco and prosecco rosé, but also produces crisp, aromatic whites like Pinot Grigio and mouthwatering reds such as Sangiovese and Merlot.
