Pasqua ‘Villa Borghetti’ Chardonnay 2022/23, Veneto

A lot of Italian Chardonnay sits nicely nestled between Old World and New World styles. They can be a little more generous with ripe-fruit flavour, while retaining as much elegance as a classic white Burgundy. If you’ve never tried one before, you can put your trust in one of Veneto’s most renowned wineries to deliver something fantastic. Founded in 1925, Pasqua has a wealth of heritage and winemaking expertise. This third-generation Veronese estate was built on a love of Valpolicella, the region’s signature red. But as this white wine goes to show, it’s not all that they’re good at. Made in a distinctly Burgundian style, this Chardonnay has flavours of stone fruit, hazelnut and vanilla. Try it with your favourite creamy pasta dish.
