2022  

100% Chardonnay.

Color: shiny yellow gold with straw-coloured glints.

Nose: charming aromas of patisserie and candied fruits.

Palate: full and round, with a frank attack. The finale stands out with wooden and meringue notes.

Serve ideally at a temperature situated between 13°C and 14°C / 55°F-57°F.

This wine can easily age for 8 years in good conditions.

Harvested by hand, then sorted in the vat room before soft pressing to extract the best quality juice. Vinification in wooden vats for greater aromatic complexity. Aged in oak barrels for 18 months, with occasional stirring to bring the lees back into suspension and reveal all the smoothness of the wine. A proportion of 25% new oak barrels were used to bring out those seductive candied notes.

The Weather : Uncertain conditions, but mild in the end throughout the season!

The harvest, running from 25 August to 16 September. The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure.

Balanced, honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot. We have both sophisticated, fruity red wines with a good Burgundy tension as well as rich, warmer ones.

A pleasant vintage in terms of quality with excellent yields for both whites and reds. The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
