An elegant and floral Chardonnay

The characteristics of the grape variety

Chardonnay is renowned for its suppleness and refined aromatic profile . It reveals floral notes, citrus aromas, and sometimes a buttery touch, which lend it a beautiful complexity on the palate. This grape variety expresses itself differently depending on the terroir, but it always presents a balanced structure and a lovely aromatic persistence. Used on its own in IGP (Protected Geographical Indication) varietal wines, we also use Chardonnay in blends for our Crémant de Loire Blanc.

An exceptional terroir in Anjou

Our vines in Anjou, planted in clay-limestone and schist soils , give our Chardonnay remarkable freshness and structure. This Anjou terroir allows the wine to develop a beautiful minerality and a balanced length on the palate. Thanks to a temperate climate, our grapes benefit from optimal conditions to reach full maturity.
