Only great wines can be dedicated to a great woman. Like this Teresa Manara, wife of the company founder, who in years that were not easy, for love decided to leave her homeland to seek her fortune in the heart of Puglia. This incredible wine, the result of a late harvest of Chardonnay grapes, is also dedicated to Teresa Manara. The grapes, harvested by hand in small containers, are gently pressed to prevent the golden skins from darkening the must. The first part of the alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Then, the still fermenting must is racked into barriques to complete its transformation. Finally, at the end of fermentation, the wine rests 'sur lie', on its yeasts, in French oak barriques, half new and half second-passage. After about 12 months, the wine is finally ready to be bottled. Excellent immediately, this late harvest Cantele is capable of evolving naturally even for 8 or 10 years. Provided, of course, that it is stored well, in a cool place and protected from light. Suitable as an aperitif, it is the white wine to serve when you want to treat yourself to a special evening. Excellent with all fish dishes, it has sufficient body and character to also stand up to pairing with white meat main courses.
