LES VOLETS CHARDONNAY, PAYS DE LA HAUTE VALLÉE DE L’AUDE

Description VITICULTURE Pinched between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, the Haute Vallée de L’Aude benefits from a warm climate combined with high altitude, which results in wines with concentrated fruit yet refreshing acidity. WINEMAKING Made from mostly hand-picked grapes, 20% has been vinified in old oak, imparting texture and body. OAK TREATMENT Yes. TASTING NOTE Bright acidity gives way to green apple and brioche notes. Older oak barrels have added texture and given a toasted hazlenut twist. For those looking for a high quality Chardonnay, this punches well above its weight. FOOD MATCHING Baked chicken with a creamy sauce, wild mushroom risotto or pasta with clams in white wine. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION Blend: 100% Chardonnay ABV: 13% Closure: Screw cap Colour: White Style: Still wine Suitable for Vegetarians: No Suitable for Vegans: No Organic: No Biodynamic: No
