Ernesto Dellapiana at Rizzi was one of the first to plant Chardonnay in the Langhe back in 1978, which shows how seriously he takes this grape in Piedmont. The wine is fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel to preserve freshness and that taut, mineral quality the family has always aimed for. The result is a genuinely different Langhe white: clean, citrus-driven and with an acidity that makes it very good with food.
Ernesto Dellapiana was one of the pioneers of Chardonnay in the Langhe area, having been one of the first to plant this vine in 1978. The family has reserved the less sunny slopes for this grape variety, wanting to reach absolute freshness. Looking to achieve a taut mineral quality, no wooden barrels were used during fermentation or aging. The wine is rich in citrus scents, with a high acidity that makes it pleasantly drinkable.
Vitello tonnato, grilled white fish, risotto bianco and light antipasti.
