Our vineyard here is planted with selections of Chardonnay grapes that we have chosen for moderate yields.

Les clous is a vin de garde- it's meant to be aged. It is made from the fruit of old vines on a predominantly limestone terroir, and in its youth displays a pure mineral character.

Patience, however, is urged: only after five to seven years does this wine reveal the full scope of its finesse and complexity of aromas.

Serve it chilled, between 54°F and 57°F.

It is a perfect complement to fish and white meats, but avoid sauces that are too spicy. Some recommanded cheeses include goat cheese, Reblochon, Beaufort, and Comté.
