The uniquely French concept of 'terroirs' or classified soils ensures low yields of intensely flavoured grapes.

Laurent Miquel, a talented young winemaker, hand selects the best of his Chardonnay and Viognier grapes from his family estate near Beziers in the South of France. He crafts this premium blend as a testament to the 'terroir' to reveal a wine with real personality and character.

Enjoy the subtle apricot and lemon flavours and a hint of almond as an aperitif or with seafood or chicken dishes.

Tasting Notes :
Characterised by combined aromas of citrus and white peaches, this Chardonnay Viognier is a delicious introduction to the unique flavours of the Viognier . The influence of the early-picked unoaked Chardonnay element is evident on the palate - lemons and clean white fruit flavours.
It finishes with rich apricot fruit
