NORMANDIE WINE WAREHOUSE

CHARDONNAY

Arnaud de Villeneuve

Vin de Pays d’Oc

Selected by Normandie Wine Warehouse

Situated in and around the southern city of Perpignan, the Rivesaltes co-op are huge, but they can produce some brilliant-value wines; like this unoaked Chardonnay from the excellent 2004 vintage. It is all a country wine should be, simple, yet well made, truly reflecting the character of the grape variety with a honey, buttery nose, and lovely ripe, round fruit in the mouth, and a nicely balanced and long finish: superb value, and a real winner at this price.

Les Vignobles du Rivesaltais regroupe 3.000 ha de vignes, mais toute l'équipe fait preuve d’une grande maitrise technique qui s'exprime pleinement dans joli chardonnay, avec ses arômes de beurre, de croissant chaud et de miel pain. En bouche il y a du fruit, du charme, à un petit prix.
