This wine is very open and intense on the nose, with aromas of white flowers, grapefruit and apricots. 2015 is a rich and well-balanced vintage with a fresh and mineral persistency.

Pairs well with poultry, shellfish, sushi, grilled tuna or swordfish, and salads.

Winemaker Notes

This Chardonnay combines the minerality of the Maconnais with the body and flavor of the Cote d’Or. The vineyard soils contain a high percentage of chalk and limestone, which imparts firm mineral nuances. Steel Chardonnay is vinified with no oak to retain the elegant aromas and clean, fresh character that the Burgundy region is prized for. The wine does not undergo malolactic fermentation and is aged in stainless steel tank to retain its fresh, crisp character.
