Terroir and Exposure
East-facing slopes, with shallow reddish soil mixed with limestone pebbles, often with bedrock just 20 cm below.
Tasting
Chardonnay with beautiful freshness, featuring notes of ripe lemon and sweet almond. The aging in 500-liter barrels adds a lovely toasty note. The overall profile is balanced, fresh, with a delicate final salinity that enhances the minerality. True elegance. Les Mûres, future 1er Cru: to be continued.
Vinification and Aging
Manual harvesting, very slow pressing after crushing. 100% vinified and aged in 500-liter barrels aged 2 to 8 years for 12 months, aiming to highlight the wine's salinity, a reflection of the terroir. Controlled sulfiting.
Food and wine pairings
It pairs wonderfully with scallops or line-caught bass, as well as white meats, for example. Serve at 14°C.
