Grapes
Chardonnay,
sourced from 3 parcels of vines that touch Domaine Guffens-Heynen’s legendary Chavigne vineyard. Jean Marie prefers to keep the grape source of this wine a secret, hence the name.
Winemaking
The vines were harvested in several passages to obtain perfect ripeness from each vine. It was matured in oak barrels which 25% are new oak.
Taste Profile
Aromas of pear, sweet citrus fruit, pastry cream and toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, deep and satiny wine that's layered and fleshy, concluding with a long lingering finish of candied citrus peel and chalky minerals.
