Wine Information

The Bret brothers acquired this beautiful 1.5-hectare property in 2016. It is situated on the slopes of a valley below the Roche de Vergisson, facing north. The soils, composed of limestone marl and light clay, are ideal for Chardonnay. Despite this cooler terroir, the grapes achieved beautiful ripeness. The harvest took place between August 31 and September 1, 2022. The Chardonnay was whole-bunch pressed and fermented spontaneously. It then aged for almost a year, 80% in tanks and 20% in barrels up to ten years old. Malolactic fermentation took place. The pH is 3.28, and the total sulphur is 49 mg/l.

Colour

Distinct straw yellow with copper reflections

Nose

The 2022 La Combe DesRoches is an agile and lively Chardonnay. Aromatically, it fluctuates between light citrus and grassy notes, as well as those of crumbly apple and cider. A hint of honeysuckle, honey flower, and lemon oil lie above them.

Palate

On the palate, the Chardonnay appears juicy, bright, and fine. Here, too, the open-looking Saint-Véran is carried by crumbly apple notes that mingle with a silky yet lively acidity. The Combe desRoches appears creamy, offers a touch of firm tannin, but above all, a very good length.
