"Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, this wine has a light, floral nose. The palate is harmonious and round without being heavy, with just the right amount of acidity to support it." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2018)

About wine:

Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, this wine has a light, floral nose. The palate is harmonious and round without being heavy, with just the right amount of acidity to support it.

About the estate:

Renaud de Roux, who has been at the helm of this ancient 95-hectare vineyard since 1968—its origins date back to the 17th century—has been farming his vines organically since 1983. He was a pioneer of this method of cultivation in the region.

Review and opinion by Mr. PHILIPPE C. Published on February 5, 2019

Light nose, refined and complex palate, slightly harsh finish which should soften with age.

A pleasant Chardonnay, though I would have expected more personality.
