Lidio Carraro Dadivas Chardonnay, Encruzilhada do Sul, Brazil 2014 Poderi Colla Winemaker Philippe Desbos selects fruitDdivas Chardonnay has a bright, straw color with shining golden reflections and high viscosity, along with intense, elegant aromas of white flowers, such as daisies and acacia, and tropical notes of pineapples, melons, pears, grapefruit, apples and crisp minerality. It contains a fascinating palate of viscosity and balanced acidity, and a long finish.
