This wine is sourced from the highest quality appellation in the Côte Chalonnaise, with fruits coming from one premier cru high altitude vineyard in the village of Montagny. The terroir rich in limestone produced a Chardonnay that is fresh and delicate.
This wine on the nose has a great rocky minerality, similar to wet cement. The palate is slate in the texture, vibrant, with white peach, lychee, and melon that carries through. The finish is balanced and open. This Chardonnay would pair well with strawberry shortcake.

International Wine Report
"The 2021 Premier Cru Les Vignes Longues comes from a single vineyard planting from the best fruit of the vineyard. An impressive bottle of wine for the price point, it’s Quite aromatic, and complex with notes of citrus peel, yellow apple, clove, honey-coated pear, and shades of flint and mushroom. Perfectly balanced - it’s medium to full-bodied and gifts a tangy, fruit and spice-focused finish. "
