Bollini Trentino Chardonnay DOC 2018
Vintage Character
Bollini Chardonnay 2018 comes from Trentino DOC in Italy’s Trentino-Alto Adige, a cool-climate Alpine zone well suited to crisp, expressive white wines. The 2018 vintage in northern Italy was generally favorable, with steady growing conditions helping Chardonnay achieve ripe orchard-fruit character while retaining fresh acidity, making this an especially appealing, value-driven vintage. Trentino’s distinctive mix of mountain influence, large day-night temperature shifts, and well-drained hillside and valley-floor vineyards gives the wine its balance of brightness, purity, and subtle mineral lift.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, this Chardonnay opens with aromas of Golden Delicious apple, ripe pear, lemon zest, and white flowers, backed by a light almond nuance and a clean stony note. The palate is medium-bodied and dry, with a supple texture, lively acidity, and a polished finish that stays focused on fresh fruit rather than oak richness. It works beautifully as an aperitif or at the table with herb-roasted chicken, linguine alle vongole, or sushi.
Winery Background
Bollini is a modern Italian label created by Neil and Maria Empson to highlight the quality and accessibility of northern Italian wines for international drinkers, with a strong emphasis on varietal clarity and consistency. Fruit for this wine is sourced from Trentino, where cool conditions favor freshness and aromatic precision, and the house style leans toward clean, fruit-driven whites rather than heavily wooded interpretations. Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel is central to that approach, preserving Chardonnay’s purity and making Bollini a dependable benchmark for approachable, alpine-influenced Italian white wine.
