Tasting notes:
An aromatic and fruity Chardonnay - fleshy and refreshing with an excellent finish.
About the wine:
The Domaine Romy is a property of 30 hectares in the area of the 'Pierres Dorées' in the south of Beaujolais. This Chardonnay is made from vines located on Morancé hill.
The grapes are pressed and a controlled, cool fermentation takes place immediately in stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation is only partial to retain some of the crispness. Bottling happens after 8 months.
About the producer:
Domaine Romy is a 30ha property located in the premium Beaujolais winegrowing area known as ‘Les Pierres Dorées’, named after the golden colour of the granite stones found in the vineyards. The tradition of winemaking in the family goes as far as 1700’s. Nicolas Romy and his father Dominique take a natural, hands-off approach to the cultivation of the vines grown in their Terra Vitis certified vinyeards, creating wines that are a true expression of the terroir.
Food match:
Absolutely beautiful with shellfish and grilled or roasted white meats.
