Wine description
"Candora" comes from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in Nardò, in the province of Lecce from vineyards more than 20 years old. In the cellar they are then further selected on a modern sorting table. A temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel follows before bottling.
Characteristics of this Apulian white wine
The wine has an intense straw yellow color; the nose is easy to recognize the notes of exotic fruit and a hint of vanilla spice. In the mouth, however, it is a pleasantly fresh wine, with hints of mineral notes and a sapid and pleasantly long finish.
Serving suggestions tasting this wine from Cantina Schola Sarmenti
Excellent with seafood appetizers or with tasty first courses. Serve at a temperature of 10ºC in a glass not very wide.
