Gerard Bertrand Domaine de l'Aigle Limoux Chardonnay 2022
A golden green color with silver-grey reflections. Expressive nose with fruity notes of white peach, opening up to notes of marzipan and pastry. The palate is fresh, mineral, light and supple with a mentholated finish.

A rich, buttery style, with toasted brioche and salt notes glossing over spiced apple and pear flavors. Remains vibrant through the medium to full finish, thanks to a racy beam of flint-laced acidity, revealing generous mineral energy and almond notes. Well-crafted and long.

A generous nose of cooked lemons, vanilla and hints of fresh butter. Ample with a medium body and a fresh core of lemons at the center. Zesty and precise with a vivid finish. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink or hold.
