LANTIDES CHRYSAMPELO CHARDONNAY 13%VOL 750ml 6pcs

The production of Lantides Chardonnay follows the classic Burgundian method, with Batonage playing a central role in the process. The first stage of fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by a transfer to oak barrels where the fermentation is completed. After aging for three months in oak barrels, the wine is then bottled. The Lantides Chardonnay originates from the Lantides family estate, situated in the Skotini Valley, where the imposing presence of the Skiros Mountain dominates the landscape, at an altitude of 550 meters in the Argolida region. This particular estate, with its low yield per hectare (750 kg per hectare) and limited sunlight due to the surrounding fir forest, provides ideal conditions for vine cultivation. The red soil of the area, combined with the subsoil that retains necessary quantities of water, protects the vines from increasingly frequent heatwaves, thus ensuring a better aromatic potential and full ripening for the creation of an exceptionally refined wine like Chardonnay.
