In the 1960s, Giuseppe Inama, the founder of this renowned wine estate, started buying small parcels of vineyards in the heart of 'Soave Classico'. The area was originally planted with the old "Graecanicum" (native to Greece) variety. This name was subsequently converted to "Garganega" in the local dialect. His idea was to collect only top quality vineyards from old vine Garganega, and from them make a wine capable of restoring Soave's reputation. Today Inama counts as a reference for both white and red wines in Soave.
This Chardonnay represents the expression of the territory - the volcanic Soave. It is the only wine that is made at Inama from grapes from both volcanic soil and calcareous soils. This wine also comes from the Soave Classico area: with the typical basalt-volcanic soil of marine origin. This chardonnay has great aromatic power with an intense nose of golden apple and pear. In the mouth the wine is well structured with notes of apple, pear and mineral. Fresh and persistent aftertaste. Ideal as an aperitif. The wine is fermented and matured entirely in stainless steel to keep the wine clean and to give maximum expression of the terroir without the influence of wood.

Wine house Inama is located near the northern Italian city of Verona. The Inama family has been producing wines for more than 40 years and is the only activity that focuses entirely on them. Wijnhuis Inama is now run by Stefano and Guiseppe Inama, the 3rd generation, with the vision: producing various wines in which, despite the styles and trends of the moment, they mainly want to make wines where their vision of the beautiful country is sufficiently represented. . Therefore, an organic agricultural system is used because it produces better fruit. Wijnhuis Inama follows its own course and has therefore developed its own know-how, without consulting all kinds of experts and wine gurus. They believe in wine that generates emotions and therefore prefer to taste "blind".
