Intensity
A low-intervention Chardonnay revealing citrus and white flower aromatics, carried by a remarkable mineral backbone.
More infoL’Élégante comes from organically cultivated Chardonnay vines, averaging 30 years of age, rooted in the region’s typical clay-limestone soils. The limestone here contributes the wine’s gently saline edge. After careful manual harvests, the sorted grapes are vinified in a traditional, low-intervention manner. Fermentation takes place naturally in vats and in old casks using native yeasts. The wine is then aged for nine months in a mix of stainless steel and seasoned oak before bottling.
The bright golden hue introduces an expressive, complex bouquet with discreet hazelnut notes, touches of citrus and white flowers. On the palate, a lively attack reveals a fine balance of fullness and tension, leading gently into a saline, lightly chalky finish.
