2022 De La Rougerie Chardonnay

Boasting a gold medal-winning pedigree, 2022 De La Rougerie Chardonnay is a lovely, balanced take on the classic white varietal from the southern coast of France. Light to medium-bodied, it offers a smooth sipping experience. Zesty fruit notes of melon, pear, and yellow apple are underscored with delicate flowers and distinctive minerality, leaving a long and pleasant finish. The De La Rougerie collection is a tribute to winemaker Benoit Calvet's ancestor, Madame de la Rougerie, who embodied elegance, curiosity, and flair. This award-winning line of wines shares these same characteristics, carefully crafted from grapes grown in Pays d’Oc. Vineyards are planted in rich soils nourished by the warm sun and refreshing breezes from the Mediterranean Sea. Best served chilled, De La Rougerie Chardonnay is lovely for sipping on its own or pairing to a range of meals. It best complements seafood—including lobster bisque, pan-seared scallops, and sashimi—as well as roasted chicken and mashed potatoes.
