Chardonnay Ventus

Chardonnay Ventus
Chardonnay Ventus fascinates with its rich varietal aroma. Its firm and full body indicates the wine's substantial amount of extracts that prevent acidity from being too obvious.
Still, these acids make the wine fresh, youthful and lively. The wine has a long and pleasant aftertaste.
