The intense, Comté-loving, oxidative sous voile style of Chardonnay. Here, over the course of almost two years, the wine aged in old oak barrels with no topping-up to form its flor. Highly savoury, the primary fruit has given way to saline flavours of toasted almond and walnut, honey and woody spices. Find out more.
