Frequently asked about Kante Chardonnay
What does Kante Chardonnay taste like?
Yellow apple, white peach, vanilla and wet stone on the nose; yellow stone fruit, creamy lees, saline depth and a long fresh close on the palate. Full-bodied with high acidity.
When should I drink Kante Chardonnay?
Drink 3 to 15 years from vintage. The oak-aged structure gives the wine medium-term cellar capacity.
Why is Kante Chardonnay classified as IGT rather than DOC?
Chardonnay is not part of the Carso DOC disciplinare. Producers who want to bottle Chardonnay from the appellation use the broader Venezia Giulia IGT category.
What food pairs with Kante Chardonnay?
Roast guinea fowl is the canonical pairing. Lobster thermidor, risotto with herbs, and Triestine fish soup are equally strong.
