Clos Saint-Fiacre Orléans Blanc 2025

This is a 2025 white wine made from 100% Chardonnay, from vines about 35 years old on sandy gravel and sandy clay soils over limestone. Grapes are picked only in the morning to keep them fresh. After pneumatic pressing and a cold settling, fermentation takes place in stainless steel, and the wine is aged on fine lees until bottling. The nose offers white flowers, peach, apricot and citrus. The attack is lively, then rounds out to a warm, creamy texture, with a saline finish.
