Our Chardonnay has an elegant expression, ripe fruits, sold structure and mineral. It has a lovely well balanced texture with green apple, pear and gooseberry taste.
History
Winemaker Mihai Banita use a combination of old world winemaking techniques and modern tehnology to make wines that reflect the unique characteristics of individual vineyards or ”terroir” where specific varietals grow best. The fusion of superb vineyard sites and thoughtful winemaking allows LacertA to deliver elegant, expressive wines.
Vinification
Grapes are picked only by hand, after manual sorting. They are then de-stemmed and crashed going direct in the press to separated the juice from the skins. In stainless-steel we controlled the temperature, set-up 16-18℃ after starting the alcoholic fermentation between 14-20 days. As the grape extracts its aroma from the territory where it is grown and can taste significantly diverse, ranging from clean and zesty to buttery, rich wines.
