The increasingly well-stocked Karma Cellar gets a brand new addition this month in the shape of the tantalisingly fruit-laden Chardonnay Pays d’Oc Blanc Barrique. This 100% Chardonnay wine boasts a Protected Geographical Indication and is crafted from grapes grown in rich clay-limestone soil close to our very own Karma Chateau de Samary in the countryside just outside Carcassonne.
The vineyard’s storied winemaking process ensures optimal ripeness, featuring light pressing and cold static settling before fermenting in barrels. The wine is then matured for 10 months in French oak barrels, resulting in a distinctive and delightful flavour profile.
Tasting notes reveal a clear and limpid appearance, with a toasted and fruity nose highlighted by hints of pineapple. On the palate, the wine is perfectly balanced between fruitiness and a touch of toasted hazelnut, delivering the characteristic butteriness of an oaked Chardonnay.
Ideal for pairing with fish, lobster, poultry, and cheese, this Chardonnay has an alcohol content of 13.5% and is best served at a temperature between 12°C and 14°C. Enjoy the latest offering from Karma Group, where quality and sophistication are always in perfect harmony.
