Description

Limoux is the French alternative to Burgundy for many wine lovers. The cool, high-altitude vineyards on the foothills of the Pyrenees have a long growing season, allowing the grapes to ripen evenly, retain freshness and develop many aromatic substances.

It was therefore a logical step for Burgundy winemaker Laurent Delaunay to invest in one of the top terroirs of the area.

The organically grown chardonnay is hand-picked and made as a high quality Côte de Beaune. The wood influence has been refined by fermenting and maturing some of it in 500 liter barrels of two to five years old. In addition, the wine rests 'sur lie' for another eight months for even more complexity.

This is a particularly beautiful Chardonnay, which with its great balance in freshness, structure and flavor length is very similar to a refined white Burgundy.
