Maculan Chardonnay
Two Italian whites from Maculan, stocked in Commack.
The story behind Maculan
Maculan is a Veneto producer, and the wines we stock from them are white: a Chardonnay and the Pino & Toi, a blend of Pinot Bianco, Pinot Grigio and Tocai. These are dry, still whites in the northeastern Italian style, clean and moderate in alcohol, with orchard fruit and a soft mineral finish. They drink well young and are built for the table rather than the cellar.
We keep a bottle or two of each in Commack, so what you see here is what we have. Call ahead and we will set one aside.

Which Maculan is right for you?
Both bottles are 12.99, which is fair money for a dry Italian white you can open on a Tuesday. The Chardonnay gives you a little more body and the Pino & Toi stays leaner and crisper. At this price, take one of each and decide at the table.
Crisp, low key and easy with fish or a simple pasta.
Dry and rounded without being heavy, good with roast chicken.
Maculan cocktails and pairings
