Tasting note
Complex and lifted aromas of ripe apricot, white peach, jasmine, violet, honeysuckle, honey and a touch of sweet spice with subtle mineral or crushed stone undertones. Full-bodied, rich, and creamy on the palate, balanced by a crisp, zesty backbone and refreshing acidity. Long and harmonious, showing persistent stone fruit, a hint of toasted nut or sweet spice, and a clean mineral edge.
Viticulture
Oldest, best estate Viognier vines on S/SE-facing terraces above Chavanay. Les Chaillets means terraces, not a district. Muscovite-rich granite; 8,000-10,000 vines/ha. No insecticides or pesticides; limited weather-led treatments and organic-only fertiliser. Vigour/yield control, leaf-thinning and green harvesting aid ripening.
Vinification
The grapes are picked when fully ripe and hand-sorted. After pressing, they are alcoholic and malolactic fermented in barriques with native yeasts. Spending 9 months in barriques, on the lees, no racking, regular stirring.
Food Match
Shellfish and delicate fish (e.g. langoustine with lemon and fresh sage).
