Sebino IGT Chardonnay Selva della Tesa 2020 Ca' del Bosco

Selva della Tesa is a wine produced exclusively with Chardonnay grapes. It comes from eight 35-year-old vineyards located in the municipalities of Erbusco, Corte Franca and Provaglio d'Iseo.

The winemaking follows the Ca' del Bosco Method, with a careful selection of the manually harvested grapes. After classification and cooling, the bunches undergo washing and hydromassage in three soaking tanks, followed by pressing in the absence of oxygen. The must ferments in small oak barrels, remaining on the yeasts for 9 months and also carrying out malolactic fermentation, with the addition of weekly batonnage to increase complexity and harmony.

This wine presents a remarkable olfactory and gustatory complexity, enriched by notes of ripe fruit, white flowers and a light touch of vanilla and butter, due to the fermentation in oak barrels and the aging on the yeasts. The structure is balanced, with an acidic freshness that enhances its persistence and finesse.

It is ideal in combination with rich fish dishes, such as risottos and seafood pasta, white meats and soft cheeses. Its elegance and complexity also make it perfect as a refined aperitif.
