Domaine Begude 'Etoile' Organic Chardonnay 2023/24, Limoux

They take sustainable winemaking seriously at Domaine Begude. Set in the heart of Languedoc’s Limoux region, the soils are totally organic and irrigation-free. Weeding is done manually, sheep manure is used as fertiliser and pesticides are banned. In other words, the Domaine cares both about making great wine and protecting the landscape. Fermentation in barrel produces this Chardonnay with gentle brioche, apple and pear notes – but it maintains plenty of freshness. Try it with a creamy risotto or seafood dishes, like fish pie.
