History

Grapes used

Chardonnay 100%

Production method

After harvesting, the grapes are subjected to gentle pressing and the must is fermented in oak barrels. Malolactic fermentation is avoided to preserve the natural acidity of the wine. After fermentation, the wine is bottled and subjected to a second fermentation in the bottle, where it is left to mature on the yeasts for at least 3 years.

Alcohol content

12.5%

Tasting notes

It has a bright gold color and a very fine perlage. The aromatic bouquet is balanced and elegant, with hints of elderflower and chamomile, melted butter, yeasts, chalk minerals and pastry notes. On the palate it is broad and full-bodied, with a very fine bubble that delicately caresses the palate, and a balanced freshness in the finish.

Possible combinations

It is recommended to taste it for meditation or in combination with refined dishes, such as smoked salmon, caviar, foie gras or dishes with white truffle.
