WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Laurent Cognard Montagny 1er Cru Clos du Vieux Château is a premium white wine produced by the renowned winemaker Laurent Cognard. The wine comes from the Montagny 1er Cru, which is known for producing some of the finest Chardonnay grapes in the world. The vineyard features a unique terroir with limestone-rich soils and a cool climate, which gives the wine its distinct minerality and crisp acidity. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, and aging in oak barrels to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is a beautifully balanced and elegant Chardonnay with notes of citrus, white flowers, and a hint of oak. It is a perfect match for seafood, poultry, and creamy pasta dishes.
