Fragrant bouquet of bright flowers, peach and tropical fruit, slight hints of honey and minerals. Smooth on the palate, very balanced, complex and with an invigorating mineral freshness. A very rare, remarkable Tuscan Chardonnay, aged for 11 months on the lees in barriques. Chardonnay Collezione Privata is a real achievement, above all for its natural ability to showcase the purity of the grape variety and the importance of texture in equal measure. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sparkling light gold colour. Elegant, beguiling bouquet of ripe stone fruit and honeydew melon, with hints of orange blossom, acacia honey and a touch of nutmeg. Smooth as silk on the palate, gentle and decisive with very well-integrated, spicy wood, great precision and length." Falstaff

"The 2022 Chardonnay Collezione Privata is an elegant, very supple wine. Notes of apricot, dried flowers, chamomile and hazelnut are framed by a subtle kiss of French oak. Medium-bodied and refined, the 2022 is quite impressive, especially for this year." Vinous

"Very restrained citrus profile with notes of bitter lemon peel and yellow grapefruit accompanied by delicate roasted flavours. The attack is polished, with a medium body, well-integrated acidity, a savoury grip on the finish and a soft, hedonistic but always exciting texture. How much this wine has improved compared to the past." James Suckling

"The Isole e Olena 2022 Chardonnay Collezione Privata is spirited and full of character, thanks to a vein of spice and cinnamon that combines with nectarine and poached pear. I love the unabashed intensity of this warm vintage. The acidity is present and the bouquet sings powerfully. This blend of ripe fruit and oak spice overlays the medium to full-bodied mouthfeel and gives the wine a long persistence." Wine Advocate
