From the Winery:
A bright, pale gold Chardonnay with aromas of white flowers (hint of jasmine spiciness) and citrus, with riper notes of white peach on the palate and a subtle vanilla and toasted note.Ideal with richly flavoured fish dishes salmon, rich enough to handle creamy sauces. Montsablé Chardonnay, IGP Haute Vallée de LAude Wine is inspired by the spirit of place Lesprit de lieu. The wines of Terres Fidèles are created in the Roussillon and surrounding regions, a place of remarkable stories where layers of history and cultures are embedded in the raw and wild landscape.Authentic, crafted small batch wines. Wines of the wilds. Old vine Grenache, Carignan, Malbec, Cinsault, Viognier and more. Wines to share, some of which, namely Felicette, Mont Rocher and Montsablé we have been proudly producing for some time.Clay and limestone soils support the 20 to 30 year old vines sited on clay- limestone soils in the Limoux, the coolest of the Mediterranean regions due to the influence of the Atlantic Vent Cers wind. WinemakingMontsablé Chardonnay, IGP Haute Vallée de LAude is characteristics comes from delicate fermentation process. The slower ripening grapes benefit from a period of cold skin contact and maceration. Pressing of the grapes with separation of free-run juice from pressed must. Cold static must settling. Temperature controlled fermentation at 17-18°C. The wine is left on its lees to add complexity of flavour, texture and weight whilst retaining a crisp, refreshing, ripe fruit finish. 20% of the wine is aged in French wood for 3 months.
