Isole e Olena Collezione Privata Chardonnay 2023 is a highly regarded Super Tuscan white wine. Vinified with full malolactic conversion and extensive barrique ageing, this wine is complex and layered, balancing a rich, creamy weight with a persistent mineral spine. Flavours are defined by baked yellow apple, crushed chalk, notes of hazelnut and a saline finish. This tension ensures its exceptional longevity and profound structural focus.

This is a wine in evolution. For one, the wine`s name has changed under new management with the removal of the words "Collezione Privata," which readers may remember. The Isole e Olena 2023 Chardonnay is softly textured and rich with cooked apricot, baked apple, breakfast pastry and light spice. It is fermented and aged in oak with fruit from a dedicated six-hectare plot with a mix of calcareous marl and galestro shale, soil types that lock in freshness and perfumes. This is always a standout Tuscan white wine thanks to its pure intensity and carefully measured mid-weight intensity. Production is 21,000 bottles. - Monica Larner

The 2023 Chardonnay is laced with hints of apricot, dried flowers, mint, tangerine oil and almond. All of the malolactic fermentation was blocked because of the heat of the year, while time in oak was nine months rather than 12. Soft and understated, the 2023 is quite attractive. It will be interesting to see how it ages in bottle. Antonio Galloni10th July 2025
