Scarpetta Chardonnay

by Scarpetta · Friuli, Italy

White • Chardonnay • 12.5% ABV

Scarpetta's Chardonnay offers a refreshing alternative to the butter-bomb style that dominated for so long – this is Italian Chardonnay from Friuli, where the cool climate and distinctive soils produce wines of remarkable freshness and minerality. Made in a clean, unoaked style that lets the fruit and terroir speak clearly, without heavy-handed winemaking getting in the way.

The name 'Scarpetta' refers to the Italian tradition of using bread to soak up the last bit of sauce on your plate – essentially 'making a little shoe' to capture every last delicious drop. It's a fitting name for wines designed to complement food rather than overwhelm it.

This Chardonnay is the perfect bottle for those who think they don't like Chardonnay (because they've only experienced the heavily oaked versions) or for Chardonnay lovers looking to explore the grape's more elegant expressions. Sometimes less really is more.
