Il Giardino

2008 Delle Venezie Chardonnay

Casa Vinicola Antonutti Il Giardino is a delightful expression of Chardonnay hailing from the esteemed Delle Venezie region. This vintage showcases a medium-bodied profile that dances elegantly on the palate. The wine offers bright acidity that enlivens its character, making it refreshingly crisp and mouthwatering. Aromas of stone fruit and citrus blossom are complemented by subtle hints of minerality, creating a harmonious balance. The fruit intensity is pronounced, revealing layers of juicy pear and apple flavors that linger gracefully. As a dry wine, it serves as a perfect companion for a range of culinary delights, from seafood to creamy pasta dishes. The craftsmanship behind this vintage reflects the exceptional terroir of Delle Venezie, making it a noteworthy experience for any wine enthusiast.

Italy

While France takes the crown for the most famous wines styles and grape varieties, Italy is where wine was first perfected. The ancient Greeks called it Oenotria—"land of the vines"—and the Roman Empire advanced grape growing and winemaking to a level of quality we still enjoy today. But behind Italy's best-known wines, such as Chianti, Barolo and prosecco, there's an almost endless diversity of delights awaiting the intrepid explorer. The key to understanding Italian wine is regionality and (of course) food. From the aromatic and sparkling whites of the north to Sicily's rich and spicy reds, Italy offers wine lovers a lifetime of gastronomic treats.
