The Chardonnay "Cardellino" was the first wine of Elena Walch and is still the most popular wine of the wine estate today. According to an old tale, the goldfinch - the "cardellino" - builds its nest only in Chardonnay vines, while not nesting in other grape varieties. Elena Walch has dedicated her debut, an elegant and characterful Chardonnay, to this faithful little bird, which has won many lovers with its fresh minerality, paired with a silky texture and notable structure.
The Chardonnay "Cardellino" has long since become a classic in South Tyrol and continues to be the most popular wine at the table of the Walch family. A wine to which one remains faithful, as the Cardellino with his Chardonnay. “The Chardonnay “Cardellino” shows a straw-yellow color, with a complex play of fruity aromas, citrus and orange peel, some lime blossom, a mineral fullness and a spicy touch of tobacco. On the palate, this classic by Elena Walch surprises with exciting freshness and racy minerality, with elegance and juicy length. Inviting, refreshing and drinkable.
