Chardonnay Jurosa, Lis Neris

New

It might sound strange, but until the end of the Seventies a grape so common around the world as Chardonnay was, here in Friuli, confused with Pinot Bianco. Although in the Oriental part of this region such grape variety has a great potential, it has not yet found a place into producers’ hearts. It is anyway possible to find examples proving that they can compete in quality with great Chardonnays from other areas of the world: Jurosa is one of them. Its warmth, combined with its Nordic appeal, delineates its evolution together with its ability to improve and develop through years
