The grapes are harvested in the cool of the morning. The focus is on capturing the beautiful, rich complexities, nutty flavors, and pronounced citrus finish. This gives the wines a unique character. After destemming, pressing, and overnight settling are complete, the juice is removed from the sediment and transferred to French oak barrels specially selected by Monsieur Christian Radoux. The selected French oak enhances the nutty and citrus aromas that emerge from the vineyard's chalky soil.
After barrel fermentation, the wine remains on the lees under controlled temperatures. Weekly stirring of the lees ensures maximum flavor release. A few months later, the wines are removed from the lees and returned to the barrels for the completion of barrel aging, with bottling commencing once the wine meets the winemaking team's strict quality standards. This process results in a beautiful Chardonnay with a powerful aroma of butter and banana, richness, breadth, beautiful oak, and a pleasant, fresh citrus note, smoky and complex, with delicious white fruit. A powerful, broad palate with great depth and intensity, juicy and fresh, with beautiful citrus fruit, the oak present only in the background.
