The 2021 Poderi Aldo Conterno Bussiador Langhe Chardonnay DOC is a premium Italian Chardonnay from Piedmont, showcasing a rich, Burgundy-inspired style with the estate’s signature precision and structure. Crafted from 100% Chardonnay grown in the Bussia vineyards, it combines power, elegance and aging potential. The nose is expressive and layered, offering notes of ripe apple, pineapple and citrus, complemented by hints of white flowers, honey, toasted almond and subtle vanilla from oak aging.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a creamy, textured mouthfeel balanced by vibrant acidity. Flavours of tropical fruit, citrus and nutty complexity are supported by a mineral backbone, leading to a long, polished and elegant finish. The style is rich yet refined, combining depth, freshness and structure with excellent cellaring potential.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a standout for customers who enjoy premium, oak-influenced Chardonnay with both richness and balance. It’s a great alternative to top Burgundy whites with a distinctive Italian character. Drink now with decanting or cellar for 8–10+ years. Perfect with lobster, creamy seafood, roasted chicken or rich pasta dishes.
