⏱️ 14 Years in the Making: Kante "La Bora di Kante" Chardonnay 2012 🇮🇹
A masterclass in white wine longevity from the extreme, wind-swept Karst limestone plateau of Friuli, Italy. 🏔️💨
The Technical Breakdown:
Unprecedented Library Release: Winemaker Edi Kante holds this flagship cuvée back for nearly a decade before release—spending up to 2 years in used French barriques 🪵, 2 years in stainless steel 🛢️, and 5 full years aging in his 18-meter-deep underground rock cellar. 🪨🕸️
The "La Bora" Wind: Named after the fierce, freezing northeastern wind that blasts the vines. 🌬️❄️ This microclimate locks in high natural acidity and builds thick grape skins, allowing the wine to age flawlessly without losing its edge. 📉✨
Low Intervention: Bottled completely unfiltered and unfined. 🍇🌿
The Profile:
The Paradox: The nose delivers mature, complex aromas of sweet baking spices 🪵, dried honey 🍯, and minty herbs 🌿, while the palate remains impossibly fresh, tight, and vibrant. ⚡
The Finish: Bone-dry 🦴 with a striking, razor-sharp wave of crushed stone salinity 🌊🧂 that cuts through the natural creaminess of the grape.
Food Pairing:
Highly gastronomic. 🍽️ Pairs beautifully with seared scallops 🦪, white fish with rich reduction sauces 🐟, or firm, nutty mature cheeses. 🧀
🇮🇹 100% Chardonnay | Venezia Giulia IGT | 12.5% ABV
📦 Limited vintage allocation available.

⏱️ 經歷 14 年嘅時間沉澱:Kante "La Bora di Kante" Chardonnay 2012
呢隻出自意大利 Friuli、喺飽受強風吹襲嘅 Karst 石灰岩高原上面釀造出嚟嘅 Chardonnay,簡直係白葡萄酒極致陳年能力嘅教科書
Technical Breakdown:
極罕 Library Release:莊主 Edi Kante 超級有耐性,隻旗艦酒要先喺舊法國橡木桶(used French barriques)浸 1 至 2 年,再落不鏽鋼缸 2 年,最後喺 18米深嘅地下天然岩洞酒窖入面做 5 年 Bottle-aging,足足擺接近 10 年先捨得放落市場。
「La Bora」狂風:酒名以當地吹襲葡萄園嘅東北極寒冷冽狂風「Bora」命名。呢個極端氣候令葡萄皮變厚,同時鎖住極致嘅天然酸度,令隻酒擺到咁耐之餘,依家飲依然咁有 vitality。
Low Intervention(低干預釀造):完全唔過濾、唔澄清就直接入樽,原汁原味。
Tasting Profile:
反差萌嘅「矛盾美」:一聞落去,係非常成熟、複雜嘅烘焙香料、乾蜂蜜同薄荷草本香氣;但一入口,佢嘅 structure 竟然保持到好 tight、好有活力。
Saline Finish:口感骨感、爽利
收尾帶有一股好似海水、碎石般嘅鹹鮮礦物感,完美平衡咗 Chardonnay 原本嘅 creamy 感,餘韻拉得好長。
Food Pairing:
呢隻係不折不扣嘅Gastronomic Wine
配香煎帶子、加咗 heavy sauce 嘅白肉魚,或者一啲質地實淨、帶果仁香嘅熟芝士都係無懈可擊
