Chardonnay Sicilia Menfi DOC 2022


Planeta, Sicily
Chardonnay Sicilia Menfi DOC 2022, Planeta, Sicily

Golden yellow with vivid greenish reflections. Intense fruity aroma with notes of peach mousse, black figs, roses and vanilla cream. Finishes with light notes of hazelnut and orange blossom honey, with slight hints of wood masked by the fruit notes. Full-bodied and refreshing on the palate. The marked balance is supported by a powerful acidity, rich in mineral salts and persistent extracts. - Gerardo [TS08/23]

"Powerful, bright golden yellow, sparkles. Appealing nose with a basket of tropical fruits, baby pineapple, mango and papaya, plus notes of orange blossom and chamomile. Very juicy on the attack and course, good tension, spreads with a fine melt, long finish, subtle caramel notes." - Falstaff
"Bright golden yellow. Elegant aromas, sweeping notes of pineapple, citrus, beeswax, white flowers and nuances of toasted almonds The palate is compact and soft, although enlivened by a lively acidity that gives freshness and dynamism to the taste. The finish is persistent and juicy with notes of licorice, very long." - Daniele Cernilli (Doctor Wine)

"Distinctly nutty, lightly toasty and with a slight fierce reduction, candied citrus, tangerine and pineapple; on the palate the toasted notes intensify, toast, in duet with the fruity melt." - Weinwirtschaft

"Sicilian sunshine in a bottle! And it's Chardonnay! The nose and palate are rich and round with the most vibrant acidity lifting that weight, giving the wine excellent depth and refreshment." - Vinepair, The 30 Best Chardonnays
