Giulio Ferrari Riserva del Fondatore 2009 Trento DOC
Giulio Ferrari Riserva del Fondatore 2009 is one of the most iconic expressions of Italian Metodo Classico. Crafted predominantly from Chardonnay sourced from high-altitude vineyards in Trentino, this vintage reflects exceptional purity, depth, and longevity. After more than a decade of aging on the lees, it reveals remarkable complexity and finesse.
The bouquet opens with notes of candied citrus, white flowers, toasted brioche, almond cream, and delicate mineral nuances. On the palate, it is rich yet vibrant, with perfectly integrated acidity, fine texture, and a long, elegant finish that highlights its maturity and precision.
