Product information

Domaine de l’Aigle is located close to the village of Roquetaillade, near Limoux in the foothills of the Pyrenees. The estate covers some 47 hectares, with vines planted between 250 and 500 meters above sea level, making it one of the highest vineyards in the Haute Vallée de l’Aude, and indeed the Languedoc. Chardonnay vines thrive in climatic conditions similar to those of Burgundy, where the grape originated; an oceanic climate with continental influences, frequent rain fall and a wide temperature range. The Domaine de l’Aigle estate produces Languedoc-Roussillon wines with a surprising freshness and an exceptional minerality. The estate began its conversion to biodynamic methods in 2014.

Vinification Details
The juice is immediately extracted by a delicate pneumatic pressing, guaranteeing the superior quality of the must. The must is cooled and left to settle before the alcoholic fermentation. The wine is left to mature over fine lees, and a certain proportion is transferred into oak barrels for a full malolactic fermentation.

Great chardonnay with just enough oak. Rich and complex, creamy, with a hint of fruit.
