The origin, grapes and craftsmanship behind this wine.

The Laurent Miquel Côte 228 Pech Clamensou Chardonnay exemplifies craftsmanship and passion, offering a rich and complex flavor profile. Upon pouring, its bright, straw-yellow color immediately catches the eye. The nose is captivated by aromas of ripe pears, subtle hints of oak, and delicate notes of vanilla. At first sip, layers of flavor unfold, with crisp pears, ripe apple, and a light touch of buttery brioche. The minerally finish provides a refreshing finish that beckons you to return. This Chardonnay is a perfect companion for refined dishes such as pan-fried scallops or a rich duck terrine.

Laurent Miquel is a name synonymous with quality and tradition in the wine world. Located in the Languedoc, the winery is led by Laurent, Henri Miquel's son. Together, they work to produce exceptional wines with a unique signature. The cellars are located beneath the historic Château Cazal Viel, situated in the southern part of Saint-Chinian. For generations, wines have been crafted here that reflect the terroir and rich winemaking traditions of the region. Laurent Miquel combines these traditions with modern techniques to create wines that delight both connoisseurs and casual wine lovers.

The Côte 228 Pech Clamensou Chardonnay reflects the exceptional quality Laurent Miquel strives for. The grapes are hand-picked at night to preserve their freshness and aromas. They are then fermented under controlled low temperatures to accentuate the fruity and mineral characteristics. Twenty-five percent of the wine is aged for 12 months in old oak barrels, imparting a subtle oaky note without overpowering the fruity freshness. The vineyard, located at an altitude of 228 meters, offers ideal conditions for growing high-quality grapes. This particular plot, known as Pech Clamensou, produces grapes of exceptional quality, resulting in a Chardonnay that is both complex and elegant. In short, the Laurent Miquel Côte 228 Pech Clamensou Chardonnay is a must-try for lovers of refined white wines. This wine offers a unique combination of fruitiness, minerality, and subtle oak notes, perfect for any occasion. Discover the richness of the Pays d'Oc with this exquisite Chardonnay from Laurent Miquel.
