Cantine San Marzano
Edda Lei Salento Chardonnay Blend
Salento, Puglia, Italy
Another outstanding vintage of this excellent Southern Italian white. A blend of Chardonnay (60%), Fiano (20%) and Wild Muscatel (20%). Golden straw color. Aromas of peaches, lemon, white flowers and vanilla. The palate features a mix of citrus fruits, spices and minerals. A little more noticeable vanilla and oak on the finish than prior vintages. Nice creamy texture and crisp acidity. Rich, expressive and thirst quenching. Revisited in January 2024. Still excellent! Revisited again in June 2025. Still excellent but reaching the end of its drinking window.

Brilliant Chardonnay with lovely texture and not relying on oak. With fried chicken burger, a fine match!
