The mountain environment ensures an ideal microclimate for a slow and balanced ripening of the bunches. The wine's distinctive character derives from the \u003cstrong\u003esoils of glacial origin\u003c\/strong\u003e, rich in mineral components. The combination of \u003cstrong\u003evolcanic porphyritic rock\u003c\/strong\u003e and well-drained calcareous-gravelly sediments gives the wine a \u003cstrong\u003esapid and taut profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, capable of enhancing its natural and vibrant freshness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins with a meticulous \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, aimed at preserving the integrity of the fruit. Following soft pressing, the must is clarified through a natural sedimentation process. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks to keep the aromatic finesse of the must intact. This is followed by a period of \u003cstrong\u003eageing in steel\u003c\/strong\u003e on the fine lees for several months. This process enriches the structure and defines the sensory profile, resulting in a white wine with a \u003cstrong\u003elively taste persistence\u003c\/strong\u003e that faithfully respects the expression of the grape variety.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and interesting facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA product of the historic Girlan winery, founded in 1923, the elegant \u003cstrong\u003eChardonnay Alto Adige DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e is produced at altitudes between 300 and 500 metres, on the hills of Oltradige and Egna.
