The Chardonnay comes from vines aged between 20 and 40 years; the grapes are selectively hand-harvested, spontaneously fermented and matured in French barriques, used with care to complement rather than dominate the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe lightly chilled, around 10–12°C, with roast chicken, grilled fish, creamy mushroom dishes or aged Alpine cheeses.
