Borgo Maragliano - Charmat Method Chardonnay Brut
Piedmontese Freshness, Fragrance, and Vivacity
The Spumante Chardonnay Brut from the Borgo Maragliano winery is born in the high hills of Loazzolo, a unique area of Piedmont particularly suited to the production of great sparkling wines. The choice to adopt the Martinotti/Charmat Method allows us to enhance the varietal fragrance and immediate pleasantness of Chardonnay, preserving its fruity notes and pronounced mineral freshness.
