Aussières Blanc

Domaine d'Aussières
Aussières was built on a fertile ecosystem where nature and people come together to learn from each other and create. Our village is very much a living place, where dialogue is the cardinal value. A dialogue of many kinds: between the elements, between the generations that have labored its grounds, between its villagers and craftsmen, and between the wine world’s different schools of thought.That is what moves us forward, ultimately creating wines that tell a story of place, respect and nuance.

The vintage
In the Languedoc, the cold and wet winter was followed by a very wet spring with significant rainfall in June. This allowed water reserves to be built up, but also led to the spread of mildew affecting parts of the region.
Thanks to a very hot summer interspersed by regular short showers, dry air, and favourable temperatures with good day-night variation, this vintage will be remembered for the very good quality of the crop. These promising climatic conditions allowed the grapes to be harvested at optimum ripeness. 2018 has all the characteristics of a fine vintage, at Aussières and in the Languedoc.
Varietal
Chardonnay : 100%

Tasting
Pale yellow colour with green reflections.
Nice aromatic elegance on the nose with delicate notes of citrus fruit and white flowers.
On the palate the wine reveals good volume without being heavy. The finish combines richness and liveliness, good length with aniseed and citrus notes.
To be enjoyed at its best 2019-2020.
