Rich and full-bodied, this creamy Chardonnay has aromas of ripe stone fruit thanks to plentiful sunshine in the vineyards. Peach and apricot notes combine with aromas of vanilla and toast from time spent in contact with oak.
With its clear and limpid lovely golden colour, this wine has fruity aromas of pear and apricot, white flowers and hazelnut, with a slightly buttery finish and subtle vanilla hints. Very nice minerality and freshness.
La Cour des Dames wines, hailing from different Pays d’Oc terroirs, pay homage to an illustrious period in Occitan culture. The troubadours, celebrated poet-musicians, devoted themselves to lyric art and courted ladies. Using their oratorical talents at sumptuous banquets served in their honour, they also introduced their audiences to wine tasting. By combining wines, gastronomy, music and poetry they were the precursors of a certain Mediterranean art of living that has lasted to the present day.
