Metairie Barriques Les Chenes Sauvignon Chardonnay

Metairie's versatility perfectly translates into a bottle of liquid happiness. For 25 years, Metairie has dominated the winemaking scene in the South of France. It was a pioneer in the revolution that has taken place in the South of France in recent decades. Before Metairie's founding, wines from the South of France had a poor reputation. They lacked flavor and even less quality. Thanks in part to wineries like Metairie, the tide has turned, and today, truly quality wines are produced from the vineyards of the South of France. Metairie Les Chenes Sauvignon Chardonnay, for example, is a wine where careful attention has been paid to the vinification method, ensuring an unforgettable taste from start to finish.

The golden duo from the South of France

Metairie Les Chenes Sauvignon Chardonnay uses two grape varieties with international appeal. First, Chardonnay, a grape that originated in Burgundy but is successfully cultivated worldwide, adds fruit, firmness, and body to the wine. The winemaker also uses Sauvignon Blanc for Metairie Les Chenes. This grape also enjoys considerable international renown. In this white wine, it primarily contributes freshness and a lively character. In our opinion, these grapes complement each other perfectly.
