Made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes grown in a 35-year-old estate vineyard rooted in fresh alluvial soils. Harvested at optimum ripeness, the grapes produce a wine that combines aromatic complexity, freshness and a refined, structured mouthfeel. Bright golden-yellow in colour, it reveals expressive aromas of ripe citrus, yellow apple and white peach, complemented by delicate floral notes and subtle nuances of vanilla, toast and sweet spice from its partial fermentation and ageing in new French oak. On the palate, it is elegant and well structured, with a creamy texture enhanced by regular bâtonnage and balanced by vibrant acidity. The finish is long, fresh and harmonious, with lingering notes of ripe fruit and finely integrated oak.

Winemaking

The Chardonnay grapes were fully destemmed and gently pressed using a pneumatic press. The must was clarified by flotation before fermentation began in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks at 16°C. During the final third of alcoholic fermentation, 50% of the wine was transferred to new French oak barrels, where fermentation was completed. This portion was then aged in barrel for three months with regular bâtonnage, adding texture, complexity and subtle oak nuances while preserving the wine’s freshness and varietal character.

Food Pairing

An excellent match for pan-roasted sea bass with cauliflower purée, charred leeks and a light lemon beurre blanc, or roast Cornish chicken with wild mushrooms and a delicate tarragon cream sauce. The wine’s creamy texture and subtle oak complement the richness of both dishes, while its vibrant acidity adds freshness and balance.
