Cav. Luigino Balozio’s "Buri" Chardonnay is a refined white wine from the Colli Orientali del Friuli DOC. Made from 100% Chardonnay, the wine reflects meticulous vineyard management and expert winemaking. The grapes are hand-harvested and whole-cluster pressed. The must undergoes cold decantation, spontaneous fermentation, and malolactic fermentation in barriques. The wine is then aged in barriques until July to develop complexity. Pale straw yellow in color, it offers aromas of pineapple, jasmine, and candied fruit. On the palate, it is fresh, savory, and persistent. A true expression of Friuli’s winemaking elegance, this Chardonnay has a longevity of 5 10 years, making it enjoyable now or worthy of cellaring.
