Description
Bright golden colour. Aromas of fresh pineapple, hazelnut, vanilla and a soft buttery and toasted note enveloping the whole. Full-bodied, with an extremely silky texture, vibrant acidity and a very long and juicy mineral finish.

The property’s 61 hectares are spread over the fabulous clay-limestone soils that dominate the gentle hills of this vineyard. The entire vineyard is dry farmed, meaning no irrigation is used. It is here that, with the most famous white grape variety (Chardonnay) and our use of gravity flow winemaking, we produce our most emblematic white wine. This wine is capable of standing alongside any world-class Chardonnay produced elsewhere in the world.
