The Bussiador Chardonnay is a lavish and exuberant white wine that is bursting with sun-ripened aromas of exotic fruit, peach, pineapple and a distant touch of cinnamon. Acidity is never a problem with Chardonnay grown in this part of Northern Italy.
In fact, the wine offers lasting freshness. Malolactic fermentations also finish without issues. The mineral definition and clarity of the wine was impressive. The finish is silky, smooth and soft. Drink now-2026.
Plenty of white peaches and sliced lemons with some very ripe mangoes. Full-bodied. Creamy. Hints of praline. So delicious. Drink now.

This beautiful Chardonnay opens to spicy intensity with dried apricot and tropical fruit, all presented with heightened intensity and volume. The Poderi Aldo Conterno 2017 Langhe Chardonnay Bussiador is ripe and round with hints of yellow candy and ripe fruit. These opulent and softly voluptuous fruit flavors wrap smoothly over the palate. The finish is silky and fine with distant hints of crushed stone or mineral.
