Interesting Facts
This Chardonnay comes from the lowland Pays d'Oc vines planted on limestone marls. These well-drained soils, close to the Canal du Midi, protect the vines from drought, as Chardonnay needs ample water to produce balanced, healthy grapes. The grapes are picked early in the cool morning. The pressing is very gentle, in a pneumatic press, preserving the quality of the grapes. Fermentation takes place in medium-toasted French oak barrels. The wine is then aged in the same barrels, on fine lees, for 5-7 months with regular bâtonnage before bottling.
