In order to deliver wines to their customers, Carillon chose to source grapes from the South of France, leading to the creation of the \"Cap au Sud\" wines under the Vin de France classification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e The Chardonnay grapes for this wine come from an area north of Nîmes, near Montagnac. Here, there are clay and limestone slopes that are perfect for growing Chardonnay. The vines were planted in 1990 on slopes at an altitude of 250 meters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e Upon arrival in Puligny-Montrachet, the wine undergoes fermentation in traditional Burgundy barrels (20% new), followed by malolactic fermentation and a maturation period of 11 months. The wine is then blended in steel tanks and rested before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe wine presents itself with a golden color and an aroma of butter, wild flowers, lime, peach and tropical fruits. It is dry with a structured aftertaste that complements the exotic notes. A harmonious and intense Chardonnay from the South of France with the characteristic quality of Carillon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e It is ideal for fish or shellfish dishes and poultry in white sauce. Should be served chilled, but not ice cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e Francois Carillon\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"François Carillon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47714794864986,"sku":"A7B9C1D3E5F8G2H4J","price":29.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/5435\/0170\/products\/francois-carillon-et-fils-cap-au-sud-2021-721404.jpg?v=1779432193","url":"https:\/\/dh-wines.com\/products\/francois-carillon-et-fils-cap-au-sud-2021","provider":"DH Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
