A Chardonnay with Class from Puglia
Varvaglione Primadonna Chardonnay Puglia IGP is an elegant Italian white wine from Puglia, crafted by Varvaglione, a family winery with roots dating back to 1921.
Inspired by Maria Teresa Basile Varvaglione, the First Lady of the family, Primadonna Chardonnay is created to feel graceful, smooth and comforting — like a mother’s embrace.
This Chardonnay is made with soft pressing, fermentation in barrique at controlled temperature, followed by ageing in oak and bottle on fine lees with periodic bâtonnage. The result is a white wine with richness, texture and elegance, while still keeping a fresh and balanced finish.
Tasting Notes

The bouquet is intense and complex, with notes of banana, yellow fruits and toasted almonds.
On the palate, it is pleasantly smooth and rounded, supported by good acidity. The style is elegant, creamy and balanced, making it especially suitable for seafood and refined dining moments.
