Les Garrigues Chardonnay

The label features the French words "expressif et gourmand," which means "expressive and greedy." We agree: it's a wine that will make you greedy, as it's wonderfully full-bodied and expressive. This white wine from Les Garrigues is often found on wine lists at top restaurants, and we understand why. This Chardonnay is a truly full-bodied wine with all the beautiful qualities of the grape, all at a very attractive price. The winemaker at Les Garrigues always aimed to create affordable wines with a contemporary character, and we think he's more than succeeded.

The old Chardonnay vineyard of Les Garrigues

The winery and its vineyards are located in the beautiful south of France, specifically in the Vin de Pays d'Oc appellation. Here, the grapes grow on very old vines with deep roots. These deep roots give the Chardonnay bunches considerable richness and finesse. But that's not all, as the climate in the vineyards influences the quality. The sun allows the Chardonnay grapes to ripen, and the fresh breeze provides sufficient cooling. This perfect blend of warmth and freshness makes the Les Garrigues vintage stand out among its peers.

Les Garrigues Chardonnay in brief

This full-bodied Chardonnay from the Les Garrigues winery in the Languedoc region is truly exceptional. Upon uncorking the bottle and carefully pouring it into the glass, we see a beautiful straw-yellow color, characteristic of a Chardonnay. The wine's aging in the Les Garrigues cellars releases delightful aromas. We noted fruity notes of peach blossom, ripe mango, pineapple, and lime zest. The palate is soft and rich, with a lovely thick structure and a stunning fruit bouquet. The finish is full, smooth, and wonderfully long!
