Grown in Sergio Germano's vineyards in the south of the Dogliani appellation, this is a higher-altitude Chardonnay (at nearly 1,500 feet) in a relatively cool climate with limestone soils, eastern exposure, and a superb white wine terroir. Fresh, appley and very bright Chardonnay, superb with shellfish, grilled tuna, chicken Caesar salad, and light creamy cheeses like camembert and brie.
