2007 Chardonnay Domaine Begude "Le Bel Ange" Vin de Pays d'Oc

The 2007 Domaine Begude Le Bel Ange is composed of 85% Chardonnay and 15% Chenin Blanc from predominantly clay and limestone soils on south-east facing vineyards. Yields are approximately 45hl/hectare. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel, with no oak influence, and under cool temperatures in order to allow the purity of fruit shine through. In the glass, an inviting citrus nose will greet you, along with delicate nuances of honeydew melon, pear and wet stone. The Bel Ange is a superb candidate for a house white as it can be enjoyed on its own at the end of a long day, or with a variety of seafood, salad and light white meat dishes. 13% abv.
