<p>On the tasting notes, AdegaMãe Chardonnay White Wine displays a bright, clear yellow straw color. The nose offers great aromatic richness, with prominent notes of white orchard fruits (apple, peach) and subtle tropical fruit hints, complemented by delicate citrus touches and a subtle, well-integrated presence of oak. On the palate, it has great volume, a creamy and balanced texture, supported by excellent, vibrant acidity, leading to an intense and persistent finish. This Chardonnay is versatile for food pairing, excelling with fatty and oven-baked fish, other fish and seafood dishes, white meats, soft cheeses, and creamy pasta or risottos.</p>
