LES VOLETS CHARDONNAY 2022 12.5% ALC

Pinched between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean is the Haute Vallée de L’Aude. Traditional ‘noble’ grape varieties such as Chardonnay have a natural affinity here, benefitting from the warm climate combined with high altitude which allows for a slower and longer ripening of the grapes. These ideal growing conditions gives this wine concentrated fruit yet refreshing acidity which 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.
