Montsable Haute Vallee de l’Aude Chardonnay

Let’s cut straight to the chase. Quality Chardonnay from Burgundy in France is quite something else – but so is the price! You can expect to fork out $40 to 50 for a decent bottle, pushing it beyond the everyday budgets of most Chardy lovers.

Montsable (pronounced mon-sarb-blur) have taken the Burgundian style (and even experienced Burgundian winemakers!) to the south of France (the Languedoc-Roussillon region to be exact) and produced an elegant style, gently oaked (3 months) Chardonnay with times on lees for added complexity that gives genuine white Burgundians a run for their money at a price none can touch!

Produced in the high hills and chalky soils of vineyards nestled in the Haute Vallee area of Limoux in the Languedoc region. Take it to the next dinner party and tell them you spent twice the price! Serve lightly chilled with white meat dishes like roast chicken and grilled fish.
