Villa Bogdano 187 Chardonnay IGT Veneto Selection 2018 is crafted from clones of Musqué Chardonnay, originating from France that boasts enhanced aromatic and balsamic notes. After a 24-hour cold maceration, the grapes undergo a gentle pressing and ferment in medium-toasted French oak barrels, where they age for 18 months.
The resulting wine displays an intense straw-yellow color with golden reflections. Its bouquet is rich and complex, featuring notes of golden apple alongside tropical fruits such as banana, mango, and papaya. When allowed to breathe in the glass, aromas of sweet vanilla spice emerge, followed by hints of pepper and white musk. On the palate, the wine has structure, warmth, and softness, combined with a mineral and savoury character that envelops the senses.
