JOSEPH CASTAN, Le Confidentiel Chardonnay 2018

Grapes

Chardonnay (100%)

Terroir & vinification

The grapes are grown on soils composed of clay and sand in a terraced vineyard located on a limestone terrain of various gradients. Different plots are chosen for the best grapes. After pressing, the must is cold-fermented with carefully selected yeasts.

Tasting

Straw-coloured with golden inflections, while the aromatics are predominantly floral and stone fruit. A lovely concentration of white peach, apricot, honeysuckle and nutmeg lengthen on the palate for a beautifully rounded finish.

Food matches

It perfectly accompanies shellfish with sauce, grilled fish and soft cheese with herbs.

Serving

This wine should be served at a 10-12°C.
