Alba Chardonnay 2021

I'm usually not a fan of "oaky Chardonnay" but it must be said, when it's well made, it's well made 🙌. Pure, mineral and fresh despite the warm region, the wine has aromatic scent of tropical fruit, honeysuckle, nutmeg and pie crust that is complemented by notes of lemon verbena and fresh almond.
