Description | Partial ageing in barrels gives power and finesse to this fruity Chardonnay. The bouquet is subtle with a floral touch and hints of fresh butter. A barely noticeable delicate hint of wood combines with freshness and strength on the palate. |
Vinification | All wines from Domaine Tariquet benefit from: - Destemming of the grapes during the mechanical harvest - Protection against oxidation (transport of grapes in airtight tanks) - Skin-contact maceration for 8 to 12 hours in temperature-controlled pneumatic presses - Cool, slow fermentation - No malolactic fermentation - Cold storage in temperature controlled tanks at -2°C to preserve the wines’ freshness - Bottling upon order to ensure consistent quality. |
