Puy Florent Chardonnay

An excellent Chardonnay from France. Perfectly executed by the winemaker at Puy Florent. He wanted to create a Chardonnay where the quality of the Chardonnay itself is paramount, purely the aroma and flavor of the grape. Puy Florent Chardonnay is not aged in heavy oak. Simply because the Chardonnay grapes from the Puy Florent vineyards are of exceptionally high quality. It needs no embellishment.

The vineyards of Puy Florent Chardonnay

The vineyards of this successful French wine have been located in the Languedoc since 1995. This wine region is primarily known to hundreds of tourists. However, the area is also a very large and well-known wine region. Together with the Roussillon, it forms the Pays D'oc wine region, a designation for many wines from southwestern France. Until the early 1990s, the region's reputation was somewhat questionable. Exports were dominated by mass-produced wines. However, the tide has turned, and quality has risen dramatically. This Puy Florent Chardonnay is living proof of that.

The aroma and taste of Puy Florent Chardonnay

A Chardonnay as a Chardonnay should be. Fruity, slightly refreshing, but also very appealing to a wide audience. The nose reveals some complexity: peach, almond, and a hint of acacia. We're thrilled with this. The palate initially offers fruit; lots of fruit. You'll taste apricots and pineapple. However, the finish reveals refreshing acidity, making Puy Florent Chardonnay incredibly thirst-quenching. Enjoy this Puy Florent Chardonnay as an aperitif, but it's also a great choice with seafood dishes.
