WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Chavin Chardonnay Organic Cuvée Grande Réserve is produced from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the Languedoc-Roussillon region. The grapes are machine-harvested in late August. A key winemaking technique involves aging half of the wine for four months in stainless steel tanks with French oak staves, while the other half likely undergoes maturation in stainless steel to preserve freshness. This approach aims to balance fruit expression with subtle oak influence. The wine is certified organic, reflecting the producer's commitment to sustainable viticulture.
