Allow me to introduce you to a sparkling sensation from the sun-kissed lands of Puglia: the Kore Vino Spumante Chardonnay Brut by Due Palme. Nestled in the heart of southern Italy, Due Palme embodies the spirit of the region, crafting wines that sing with the vibrancy of the Apulian landscape. This isn't just a sparkling wine; it's a celebration in a bottle. Crafted exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, the Kore Spumante captures the essence of the varietal with finesse and flair. The 'Brut' designation tells you that this is a dry sparkling wine, meaning it has very little residual sugar.
Imagine yourself on the shores of the Adriatic, the sun warming your skin, a gentle breeze carrying the scent of citrus groves. That's precisely the feeling that this wine evokes. On the palate, you'll be greeted with a symphony of flavors. Crisp, refreshing citrus notes dance alongside hints of green apple and pear, creating a harmonious blend that's both invigorating and satisfying.

The finish is clean, dry, and remarkably persistent, a testament to the wine's exceptional quality.
This versatile sparkler shines as an aperitivo, awakening the palate and setting the stage for a delightful meal.
