Winemaker Philippe Melka's Tasting Notes

"The 2024 Chardonnay opens with an elegant aromatic lift of white flowers—jasmine and orange blossom—woven with bright citrus tones of fresh lemon peel and Meyer lemon. On the palate, it’s precise and energetic, driven by vibrant acidity that gives the wine a crystalline edge. Layers of green apple, ripe pear, and a hint of nectarine unfold, balanced by a subtle creaminess.

A pronounced minerality runs through the core, evoking wet stone and a touch of sea spray, adding tension and depth. Gentle notes of toasted almond and a whisper of vanilla emerge with air, suggesting thoughtful oak integration without overshadowing the vineyard character. The finish is long and focused, leaving impressions of citrus zest, chalk, and a delicate saline note that invites another sip."
