Pandolfa "Battista" Chardonnay

Bright. Zesty. Effortlessly drinkable.

Nestled in the gentle hills near Predappio, Pandolfa crafts wines with a distinct personality, and their “Battista” Chardonnay is a shining example. Bathed in the golden light of Emilia-Romagna, these grapes ripen under warm days and cool nights, developing layers of flavour that marry richness with refreshing vitality.

This is no overworked, oak-heavy Chardonnay. Pandolfa lets the variety express its natural charm, giving us a wine that is as graceful as it is satisfying — the kind of bottle that pairs as beautifully with a simple supper as it does with a refined dinner party in Ireland.

Why we love it:
We love how the “Battista” Chardonnay strikes a perfect balance — ripe orchard fruit and citrus brightness wrapped in a silky texture. It’s fresh enough to open as an aperitivo, yet with enough body to carry through a meal. In Ireland’s often cool evenings, it feels like a gentle reminder of sunnier days.
