Gérard Bertrand Côte des Roses Chardonnay Pays d'Oc IGP 0,75 ℓ

The Chardonnay of the Côte des Roses line is a white wine produced by Gerard Bertrand, a French biodynamic company founded in 1975 which includes several Château and Domaine in the south of France. The choice of biodynamics as an agronomic principle is based on the belief that viticulture in harmony with nature is the best way to reveal the typicality of a terroir and produce great wines. The grapes are meticulously harvested and selected by hand. The grapes are de-stemmed and cooled to 8 ° C before being squeezed, and then proceed to fermentation which lasts 15-30 days. Part of it is vinified and aged in barriques for approx. 4 months, the rest is vinified in steel vats at a controlled temperature. Pale straw yellow in color, the wine reveals aromas of exotic fruit, almond, hazelnut and citrus to the nose, with notes of sweet spices at the end deriving from aging in barrique. The sip is fresh and savory. Excellent to accompany hot and cold fish appetizers, seafood risotto and grilled fish.
