The Chardonnay BIO Salento Passo Marchese by Paolo Leo is produced from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the rural area of San Donaci, in the province of Brindisi. After manual harvesting, carried out in the early hours of the morning, the grapes are immediately transported to the cellar for vinification. After destemming and crushing, the must is fermented at a controlled temperature of 15°C for a period of 10 days. The wine is then aged for 4 months in stainless steel and an additional month in the bottle.
