Straw yellow with bright greenish reflections, the 2024 Tormaresca Chardonnay from Puglia glimmers with freshness and aromatic clarity. On the nose, it offers a delicate yet expressive bouquet of orange blossom, yellow apple, and white peach, complemented by herbal notes of thyme, rose, and lavender, with a hint of citrus zest.
On the palate, it is crisp, finely textured, and savoury, with a harmonious balance of vibrant acidity and gentle minerality. Subtle layers of honey, ripe pear, and a touch of vanilla enrich the refreshing citrus finish, which is persistent, elegant, and beautifully poised, capturing the coastal freshness and limestone character of its Apulian origins.
