"La Jara"
Chardonnay
Doc Colli Piacentini

It takes its name from a small parcel of land in the commune of Ziano, planted with Chardonnay and overlooking an old farmhouse of great charm called "La Jara". The grapes are hand-picked and placed in small wooden crates during the first ten days of September. All the juice obtained from soft pressing ferments in small French oak barrels holding 225 litres each, and it stays there for nine months. The wine is then aged in bottle before it can be sold.
