This is a modern style Chardonnay of exceptional grace. Grown on the higher, cooler, north facing slopes, which preserve the fresh fruit flavours. The grapes were hand-picked, followed by berry selection, whole berry pressing and fermentation in oak barriques. Citrus and tropical fruit flavours with a seductive creamy finish. where to buy Trophy Winner – Top 100 Vin de Pays Competition 2007 La Bouscade Chardonnay 2007, Vin de Pays d'Oc - just released Same fresh citrus fruit style!

A
vivid and contemporary rosé, very vivacious. Cool fermentation
in oak and careful handling, in the absence of air, has
preserved the strawberries and cream, cherries and vanilla
characteristics, with a subtle "The nose is a summer fruit cocktail of raspberries and cherries with a hint of thyme, and a real lightness of touch that dances across the tongue. Ripe, with a beautiful balance, crisp acidity and layers of flavour this is a wine that combines a serious structure with a playful personality. At ease equally in “jeans” as an aperitif with friends, or in a "tux” at more formal dinner occasions. Another winner from this impressive family run estate." Matthew Stubbs, Master of Wine. * La Bouscade Late Harvest 2006, Vin de Pays d’Oc (50cl)
Luscious and honeyed; an intensely sweet wine. Ideal climatic conditions resulted in ‘noble rot’ and great concentration of our Vermentino and Macabéo berries. Cool, slow fermentation in new oak barrels has enhanced the characters of apricot, marmalade and grapefruit zest. Ideal with puddings or with foie gras and certain cheeses. where to buy
