Where it begins
At BOLLE, we meticulously select and understand premium vineyards to craft our wine. Our Chardonnay originates from the La Mancha region, one of the world’s largest wine-producing areas, located in the heart of Spain. Traditionally associated with native Spanish grapes like Airén and Tempranillo, La Mancha is now recognized for its international varieties like Chardonnay, which offers a unique expression distinct from those grown in cooler climates.
The land
The land here is rich in history, its soil a blend of minerals and moisture that nurtures each vine. The vineyards stretch across undulating landscapes, bathed in the Mediterranean breeze that breathes life into the fruit.
For over 120 years, the vineyards that provide BOLLE with its Chardonnay have been more than just fields of grapes—they are the lifeblood of a family, passed down through generations, each as devoted to the land as the last. This
family embodies a deep respect for tradition and a commitment to quality, making their name synonymous with excellence.
Love and care
Leading the way in sustainable farming practices, they understand that the land must be cherished and preserved for future generations. Their vineyards stand as a testament to this philosophy, where every decision is guided by respect for nature. The soil is carefully nurtured, the vines are lovingly tended, and the harvest is always done by hand, ensuring that each grape is of the highest quality, with minimal impact on the environment.
Our wine is born from this extraordinary terroir and the dedication of a family that has poured their heart and soul into their craft. The vines, some rooted for decades, draw from the earth's deep reserves, absorbing the character and strength that define our wines. The grapes are caressed by the golden Spanish sun, ripening slowly to achieve a harmony of flavors that is both delicate and profound.
As harvest approaches, anticipation fills the air. The vineyard is alive with the scent of ripening fruit, a symphony of aromas that hints at the wine to come. Each grape is handpicked with care, a ritual perfected over generation
The unique process
Once the wine reaches our facility, it undergoes a meticulous de-alcoholization process using the most advanced de-alcoholization technology available, but even the best technology removes some character from the wine. That’s why Bolle, as the only provider in the world to do so, introduces a second fermentation.
We add fresh grape juice and yeast, initiating a second fermentation that elevates the wine to new heights. This innovative approach captures the purest expression of the grape and the terroir, delivering a wine that is bright, crisp, and elegantly balanced, with notes of crisp apple, juicy pear, zesty citrus, and a hint of toasted notes.
Each sip of our wine tells the story of the land from which it came — a story of passion, dedication, and respect for nature, carefully crafted by the hands that have nurtured it for generations.
