2020 'Infiniment de 'l'Ou', Château de l’Ou
This vibrant Chardonnay is characterised by great minerality, layered with bright citrusnotes, floral hints and toasted nuts through to a vibrant, saline finish.
The Chardonnay grapes come from the Côtes Catalans, which is the principle IGP allowing only mono-varietal wines. The vines thrive at an altitude of 385 metres’ elevation in the Haute Vallée de l’Agly, in the Roussillon region. The climate is Mediterranean, strongly influenced by cooling coastal breezes combined with mountain-freshness from the foothills of the Pyrenees which balance the hot, arid summers. The terroir is made up of a mosaic of black schist soils, which date back to the Cretaceous period. The schistous marl produces shallow soils, which force the vines to send their roots deep in search of water and nutrients. The vineyard is certified organic.
