In the glass
Aroma: pineapple, peach, apple, mango, melon
Palate: stone fruit, minerals, cream
Intense yellow with green undertones. The cellar calls Chardonnay the pillar of its complex white blends and treats the varietal bottling the same way: rich, complex and slightly spicy, smooth and velvety on the palate.
What it pairs with
-
Red and white meat with potatoes
Benedetic name them; the wine's richness carries a substantial plate. -
Struklji and gnocchi
The cellar names both; the velvety texture meets the dough. -
Duck or pheasant
Benedetic name wild poultry; full body and acidity both have a role.
