Type: White Wine (Natural / Organic / Minimal Intervention / Barrel Aged)
Region: Benaco Bresciano IGP, Lombardy, Italy
Grapes: 100% Chardonnay
Alcohol ABV: 14%
Aroma:
Complex and expressive aromas of ripe yellow apple, pear, white peach, and citrus peel, layered with notes of almond, vanilla, toasted hazelnut, and subtle buttery nuances from barrique ageing. A delicate oxidative character, reminiscent of flor and dried herbs, adds depth while maintaining freshness.
Palate:
Full-bodied yet energetic, showing a beautiful balance between richness and freshness. Ripe orchard fruits, citrus, and gentle nutty flavours are supported by creamy texture, subtle oak influence, and a mineral backbone. The finish is long, savoury, and elegant, with a refined oxidative complexity that makes it highly gastronomic.
The Chardonnay grapes are spontaneously fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in barrique barrels, where the wine develops additional texture and complexity. The 2023 vintage experienced a natural flor veil during barrel ageing, contributing a subtle oxidative character while preserving freshness and balance. Produced without added sulphur, with minimal intervention and no unnecessary manipulation, the wine reflects Sunawi’s philosophy of allowing the grape to express its fullest potential.
The grapes come from Sunawi’s organically farmed vineyards in Lombardy, near Lake Garda, where vines benefit from a mild Alpine-Mediterranean climate and diverse soils shaped by glacial influences. Sunawi focuses on sustainable and natural farming practices, promoting biodiversity and healthy vineyard ecosystems to express the purity and character of the terroir.
