Les Cépages Chardonnay

Chardonnay is now cultivated all over the world. As a Vin de Pays d'Oc, it presents itself as sun-drenched and authentic. Fragrant aromas of pineapple, white peach, and hazelnut are finely balanced by a subtle minerality. On the palate, it offers a rich, full body with lush fruit, soft and rounded with a long finish. The grapes come from vineyards near Limoux, close to Carcassonne. The grapes for this Vin de Pays d'Oc are selected with the utmost care by Baron Philippe de Rothschild's oenologists from the vineyards of long-standing partner growers. The grapes are destemmed and gently crushed, then left in contact with the skins for several hours to extract valuable aromas. The must is chilled to allow the lees to settle. Temperature-controlled fermentation then follows to preserve the fresh aromas. The wine is aged exclusively in stainless steel.
