✨ wine.spec_sheet
Pasqua, established in 1925 by the Pasqua brothers in Verona, has spent nearly a century crafting wines that bridge Venetian tradition with modern appeal. This Chardonnay hails from the Trevenezie IGT, a name paying homage to the historical 'Tre Venezie' region—Veneto, Trentino-Alto Adige, and Friuli-Venezia Giulia—which once thrived under the maritime influence and trade routes of the Venetian Republic. Grown in soils shaped by ancient glacial activity and cooled by alpine breezes, the Chardonnay grapes are vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve their vibrant, natural fruit character. The resulting wine avoids heavy oak influence, instead showcasing a bright, clean profile defined by crisp golden apple, citrus zest, and delicate floral undertones, embodying the fresh and elegant style of northeastern Italian whites.
