From the Archive

100% Chardonnay. Pressing by pneumatic press is light and controlled. Alcoholic fermentation is done at low temperature on fine lees, in barrel. We pay great attention to the quality of the lees. These will give the roundness and complexity of aromas we are looking for. At barrelling, we ensure that there are sufficient lees present.
