Les Hauts De La Garrigue Chardonnay Viognier

Les Hauts De La Garrigue Chardonnay Viognier offers apricot and subtle, zesty, lemon fruit aromas on its nose. The palate is pleasantly ripe with similar fruit flavours, although it remains refreshing thanks to the altitude and cooler temperatures of the vineyards.

This blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Viognier was produced especially for us by Floris Lemstra at Château Canet, from grapes grown near Limoux at the base of the Pyrenees. Here, the milder microclimate helps to retain the refreshing level of acidity within the grapes.

After skin contact maceration, the grapes are gently pressed, extracting only the clearest juices, followed by fermentation at a low temperature and maturation in tank for 6 months.
