Rooted in the rich, clay-limestone soil of the region, the VICHON CHARDONNAY IGP PAYS D’OC is a remarkable testament to its diverse terroir. The unique soil composition allows for the cultivation of expressive and characterful Chardonnay grapes. The vinification process harmoniously blends traditional methods with modern techniques. It starts with direct pressing, followed by cold settling, and fermentation in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature of 17°C. This meticulous approach preserves the wine’s intricate flavors and aromas. Part of the Chardonnay is subtly oaked, adding complexity and depth.
In appearance, the VICHON CHARDONNAY showcases a beautiful yellow color with golden highlights. Its complex and intense nose offers a symphony of white flowers, such as acacia and hawthorn, coupled with hints of cinnamon and vanilla. The taste is fresh and rounded, leading to a persistent finish that features candied fruit and toasted notes. This balanced and elegant wine, ideally served at 14°C, is versatile in pairing, particularly with white meats and cheeses. Its 13% alcohol content is seamlessly integrated, making it both approachable and sophisticated.
