This is a well-priced value wine (with a large production of 240,000 bottles) from the far north of Italy. The Alois Lageder 2019 Alto Adige Chardonnay opens to a lean appearance and a light straw-gold color. The bouquet presents classic and informal varietal aromas of citrus, green melon, cut grass and honey. This is a terrific choice for Chinese takeout with a portion of crispy spring rolls.
