Wines inspired by the spirit of place - ‘L’esprit de lieu’. Authentic, crafted small batch wines. The vineyards are planted in the foothills in the south of France, in the Haute Vallee of Limoux which are the cooler sites there and the best for Chardonnay and Pinot due to slower ripening and better levels of acidity. Maturation on fine lees and in stainless steel vats for a part of the cuvée. 20% is oaked with French wood.

A bright yellow gold hue and aromas of blossom and cinnamon spice. On the palate pears, peach, honey toffee, cream and vanilla (from a short spell of oak ageing) all knit together harmoniously. Beautifully balanced with ripeness, acidity, length and real structure. A very classy Chardonnay. A great match for fish or roast chicken.
