La Forge Estate Chardonnay 2020 750ml

La Forge Estate's Chardonnay embodies Pays d'Oc IGP, where the vines thrive on limestone soils with gravel, complemented by sandy-loam and gravel. The winemaking process begins with a skin contact of three hours, followed by gentle pressing in a pneumatic press. Racking occurs at 50°F with selected yeast, and 100% of the must ferments in French and American oak barrels for one month at 60°F. The wine then ages in barrels for four months, resulting in a wine of richness and mellowness. In the glass, this Chardonnay exhibits a bright gold straw color with yellow tints, setting the stage for a sensory journey. Elegant flavors of tropical fruits, hazelnuts, lime-blossom, and quince unfold, complemented by a subtle interplay of vanilla and toasted bread. La Forge Estate Chardonnay is a perfect choice for a relaxing drink. Pair this rich and mellow Chardonnay with seafood and fish dishes, sushi, white meats, blue cheeses, and fruit desserts.
