“After about ten months in the tank, this pure Chardonnay boasts a lovely, clear, and brilliant color and displays an expressive nose of white flowers, lemon, and butter, blended with hints of the sea.

About the wine:
After spending just under ten months in the tank, this pure Chardonnay boasts a lovely, clear, and brilliant color and displays an expressive nose of white flowers, lemon, and butter, intermingled with hints of the sea. On the palate, it is full-bodied and silky, revealing great finesse and remarkable length, with notes of citrus and minerality.
About the estate:
Renaud de Roux, who has been at the helm of this historic 95-hectare vineyard since 1968—records of which date back to the 17th century—has been cultivating his vines organically since 1983. He was a pioneer of this farming method in the region.
