Friuli Italian Wines

Kante’s most ambitious bianco is 100% Chardonnay aged for one year in French barrels, two years in stainless steel, and five years in bottle; such serious and lengthy elevage is uncommon for white wines, because long aging can soften a wine’s acidity and tension, however, these qualities are on full display here. Impossible to ignore, with a bouquet that mixes sweet,  and savory: confectionary spice and white flowers offset by nectarine and minty herbs. Its silken textures coat the palate with elegant peach tones, mixing ginger  and vanilla bean,  as a peppery twinge adds verve. The intensely mineral and saline finish reminds you that this gorgeous bottle originates in the limestone soils of the Carso plateau overlooking the Adriatic Sea from eight hundred feet above.
