Chateau St Louis Chardonnay 2005
The chardonnay is planted on 13 acres of residual river sand and clay. These vines produce a golden colored wine with a lightly fruity aroma and complex yet balanced flavours of citrus and baked apples. Saint Louis chardonnay pairs well with poultry, pastas, or asian dishes.

Louis Jadot Macon-Village Blanc
The Mâconnais is a transitional region not only of Burgundy, but of France: it links the Côte d'Or and Chalonnais with the Beaujolais, and begins to turn the northern landscape gently meridional. Though Burgundy's most populous viticultural zone, it retains a charm and small naturalness belonging to another era. A trapezoidal...

Lulu B. Chardonnay is a charming, brilliant gold color. The bouquet is warm and welcoming, has hints of citrus and gains in complexity to reveal notes of honey and croissants. Once you taste my liquid sunshine you will find that it is both rich and fresh and with a long, generous...
Red Bicyclette Chardonnay 2007
Crisp red apple with a hint of buttery pear and spice, perfectly balanced and easy to enjoy.
This wine is a blend of various juice presses from several parcels of limestone ground. Thanks to harvest at perfect maturity in 2007 (good acidity and good concentration of sugars), this wine shows a beautiful density. Thus it could benefit from a traditional wine-growing without becoming heavy.
