The Antinori family’s Tormaresca estate is located in the northern part of Salento, directly bordering the Adriatic Sea. It comprises nearly 400 hectares of carefully cultivated vineyards, surrounded by 85 hectares of olive groves. After harvest, precise vinification begins immediately. Following gentle pressing, the must is cooled to 10°C and settled for a full day to preserve its purity and freshness. Fermentation is carried out exclusively in stainless steel tanks, allowing the natural fruitiness and vibrant character of the Chardonnay to be retained.

The short ageing process also takes place in tanks, allowing the flavours to unfold with crystal clarity. The wine’s appearance is elegant, with a straw-yellow hue accompanied by delicate green tints. The nose is refined and inviting, evoking the freshness of white fruits: ripe peach, mango and crisp green apple are in perfect harmony, subtly enhanced by the floral notes of jasmine. The palate is impressively aromatic and refreshing, whereby the intense flavours of tropical fruits – mango, passion fruit and peach – meet a hint of playful, marshmallow-like sweetness. The wine’s fresh acidity and flavourful finish linger, conveying a true sense of elegance.
