Chardonnay
Situation
Situation : Le Climat Les Preuses est un terroir exposé sud, sud-ouest dominant la colline des Grands Crus par une pente douce et continue. Les sols d’argile calcaire brune rencontrent des marnes calcaires kimméridgiennes, conférant au vin sa minéralité et sa pureté.
Vinification & Aging
The grapes are harvested by hand. The juices are then settled with precision and fermented in 70% stainless steel vats and 30% oak barrels with a 228 and 500-litre capacity. Fermentation is closely monitored and carried out with precision.
The wine is left to rest on its fine lees for a year during which it is racked twice. The wine is then blended carefully and attentively to create a perfect balance.
Tasting notes
Gorgeous deep green-gold hue.
Expressive nose disclosing notes of rosehip, lemon tree and wild yellow flowers complemented by freshly baked brioche, frangipane and sugared almonds. Mineral notes of wet stones after a storm give way to aromas of ripe lemon.
The palate is full, elegant, bursting with freshness and exceptionally well-balanced. A touch of almond milk coats the palate and gives the wine a distinct creamy feel. Fleeting notes of mint and angelica persist on the incredibly long, complex and pure finish.
