Region: France, Bourgogne
Grape variety: Chardonnay
Background: “Vins de France” can be produced throughout the whole of France using grapes harvested exclusively within its borders. This quite new appellation (2009) allows for a greater liberty in winemaking compared to the appellation system. It is a great opportunity for our winemaker to express his skills with a wine with a steady style and unique personality.
Winemaking process: The grapes were harvested during the cool hours of the night to keep the typical freshness of Chardonnay. Each plot was vinified separately so that we respect their true nature, and get a finer and purer wine. After the fermentation process, the wine is aged for 4 months on fine lees, in stainless steel tanks to keep the fruit and freshness of the grape.
Bright straw-coloured. Generous and seductive nose with notes of nectarine and acacia. Exotic fruits are also found on the elegant and well-rounded palate.
Food pairing: It should be an elegant companion to mixed salads, grilled meats, fish and shellfish.
