WINE ``OF CHARME`` MIRROR OF THE MEDITERRANEAN ESSENCE
Charme Clerí White
IGT Terre Siciliane
Chardonnay, White Muscat, Carricante
The Podere Giudeo estate in the Val di Mazara constitutes the primary composition of Charme Clerí white, a wine capable of telling an intense story of Sicilian aromas and scents. The vineyards of Podere Giudeo are caressed by the sea wind and kissed by the warm Sicilian sun, expressing the ideal characteristics to give life to Charme Clerí: a white capable of harmoniously combining pleasantness and elegance, freshness and structure. The liveliness of Chardonnay dialogues synchronically with the aromaticity of Moscato Bianco and with the elegance given by a hamlet of Carricante. The result is a balanced wine, with an intense nose, where hints of tropical fruit, citrus and honey blend with the delicate vegetal notes of thyme and rosemary.

2023
The 2023 harvest in Sicily was one of the most challenging in recent years: due to unpredictable weather conditions, there was a decrease in production of over 40%. The extreme climatic events at the end of spring and beginning of summer were certainly a real challenge, but despite this, the quality of the grapes proved to be excellent, with healthy and intact clusters, thanks also to the water reserves accumulated during the spring rains. Downy mildew reduced the quantity of grapes but not their quality.
