Step inside the world of Fondo Indizeno, where tradition meets innovation under the expert guidance of Christian Patat, one of Italy’s most revered winemaking consultants. This 100% Chardonnay from Friuli embodies the essence of the region, showcasing an exquisite balance of freshness and depth that reflects the character of its terroir.
Sourced from venerable vines aged over 30 years, this Chardonnay draws from two remarkable villages in Colli Orientali del Friuli—Prepotto and Buttrio. Christian's dedication to elevating the identity of Friuli shines through in this wine, crafted with meticulous attention to detail. The vineyards are cultivated using organic practices, fostering the integrity of the grapes without certification.
In the winery, purity is paramount; the Chardonnay is vinified in stainless steel and aged on its lees, allowing layers of complexity to develop naturally. The result is a vibrant wine bursting with exotic fruit notes, harmoniously intertwined with a mineral backbone and refreshing acidity. Each sip is a journey through Friuli's enchanting landscape, capturing the spirit of the land while offering a delightful experience that lingers long enough without getting annoying.

Vintages
We will endeavour to deliver vintages as advertised but they often change faster than we can update (we're pretty slow). So, again, it may be wise to confirm before ordering if you're in need of something particular. Please note: Some bottle images may not show the current vintage.
Surcharges
Surcharges often apply to deliveries outside mainland England so wise to confirm before you order. Indeed, Northern Ireland is beyond us unless shipping charges agreed beforehand.
