Very Chardonnay. Joie de Vivre ! Very nice, full-bodied, higher Chardonnay. Made from hand-selected grapes from Limoux, which are moved in small containers, sorted on tables and pressed. The malolactic and alcoholic fermentation take place in French oak barrels of 220 liters. The yeasts are stirred daily for 2 months to give the wine more aromas and complexity. The wine remains in the same barrel for 8 to 9 months to obtain optimal balance. Made 100% Chardonnay from 20 year old vines from the hills of the upper Aude valley.

Story behind the label: Enjoy life! And that is what the wine cooperative Anne de Joyeuse wants to convey with its wine series 'Very'. Very influences the grape in its ripest form, whereby grape-specific characteristics are emphasized in a balanced way. Since 1994 Anne de Joyeuse has equipped the label ' Protect Planet ' for sustainable economy and the promotion of biodiversity.
White wine - Full, creamy and complex. The Very Chardonnay is bright gold in colour with aromas of hay, acacia, citrus, peach and brioche. Great as an aperitif, but also great as a classic meal accompaniment. Lots of flavour and complexity due to the wood aging.
Our sommeliers recommend: Goes well with grilled, fried or roasted fish (e.g. À la Meunière), oven-baked fish with a rich sauce and fried shellfish au gratin. Also good with grilled white meat and fried sweetbreads with rich sauces and grilled and oven-baked vegetables. Cream soups and rich salads with warm preparations with fish and grilled vegetables also go well. Also try with spicy white mold cheeses.
