Les Gaudrettes is a 100% Chardonnay cuvée from vines farmed biodynamically and planted on a marl terroir. The grapes are picked by hand, and the vinification is respectful of the grapes: direct pressing, fermentation and ageing in barrels for three to four years, depending on the bottling. The wine is neither filtered nor fined, with zero added sulphur.

Delicious and approachable. A charming bouquet of salted almonds, butter, fruit trees blossoms, apples and lemon. Salty and a bit fizzy mouthfeel with good balance, structure and a persistent aftertaste.

Nothing new here. It’s delicious, charming and approachable. Yet not overly complex. Salted almonds, butter, fruit trees blossoms, apples and lemon. Salty mouthfeel with good balance and structure. The aftertaste is long and flavourful.
