An exceptional recommendation by Master of Wine, Alistair Cooper MW

Stunning Chardonnay from cooler, hilly sites in the south of France

Hints of oak behind the wonderfully detailed citrus and melon characters - such a fantastic Chardonnay

    • Description

      Wonderfully intense nose boasting a great deal of complexity: white peach, ripe lemon, fresh citrus, followed by notes of pastry (lemon tart, barley sugar) and a floral touch. Discrete and subtle oak notes (hazelnut, spice). Very well-balanced and complex on the palate with fantastic harmony between sensations of roundness, freshness and detail. Remarkable length.

    Cote Des Sommets

    Côte des Sommets wines are a tribute to the rugged terrain, a fusion of nature's artistry and wine-making mastery. As the vines climb towards the sky, our commitment to quality soars to the pinnacle. Each sip is an elevation, a taste of the summit's finest. "Côte des Sommets" isn't just a name – it's an aspiration to taste the heights, an invitation to savour the peak of perfection. Discover the taste of altitude, and embrace the essence of excellence.

    The Pays d'Oc takes full advantage of its Mediterranean climate. With its coastline bordering the region in the South, it provides hot and dry summers for perfect maturity. On the other side, the Black Mountain brings enough humidity and cool temperatures for the vineyards to produce grapes packed full of fruity aromas.

    Traditional French Chardonnay

    A very balanced French Chardonnay.
    Lightly oaked and definitely worth drinking.

    The wine to my palate has very limited ‘length’. Not enough of either acid or fruit to carry the flavour.
