ABOUT THIS BOTTLE
This Chardonnay hails from the Touraine region of the Val de Loire, where the grapes are grown on clay, limestone and flinty soils. The vines average 10 years of age and are cultivated using sustainable farming practices. The grapes undergo direct pressing, and the juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wine is then aged for 4 months on the fine lees in steel tanks before being lightly filtered and bottled. Pale yellow in color with greenish reflections, this Chardonnay captivates with aromas of white flowers, pear and green apple. On the palate, it is well-balanced with a vibrant core of stone fruit flavors.
