The Guerrini Chardonnay Umbria IGT 2025 comes from Monteleone d’Orvieto, in the green heart of Umbria, where vineyards and woodland coexist in a carefully preserved balance. The Guerrini family’s story in wine began in 1958, when Berardino Guerrini opened a wine shop in central Rome; in 2008 Marco Guerrini chose Monteleone d’Orvieto to develop a wine project focused on biodiversity and minimal intervention in both vineyard and cellar.

High-altitude Chardonnay, made in stainless steel

The grapes come from vineyards at around 514 metres above sea level. Harvesting is carried out by hand in crates, with each bunch manually selected. Fermentation takes place at controlled temperature in stainless-steel tanks, followed by ageing on the fine lees and a fully stainless-steel maturation, preserving freshness, aromatic precision and varietal identity. The 2025 season saw a cool, regular spring and well-distributed rainfall; despite a more complex harvest period with some rainy days, the grapes were picked in excellent qualitative condition.

Tasting profile and food pairings

The nose opens with sulphurous notes, followed by white flowers, white-fleshed fruit, citrus and tropical fruit. The palate is fresh and harmonious, supported by lively, persistent acidity. It pairs well with fish, shellfish, soft cheeses and white meats. Serve at 5-7 °C. This reference is offered in a 100 ml format.
