LIBERATION DE PARIS Chardonnay VIS NM VINCO

Libération De Paris, Chardonnay, 2025

"In August 1944, a convoy of American soldiers liberated a small village in Brittany, France. The first jeep stopped to pick up a seven-year-old boy who had been badly affected by the war. The American soldier gave him a piece of chewing gum and some chocolate.
The boy's eyes lit up and he smiled. From that moment on, an eternal gratitude for the United States of America was born. That boy is my father, Joël Bonneté."
Jean-François Bonneté, co-owner of Libération de Paris

Presentation

A distinctive French Chardonnay which combines a rich fruity profile and a refreshing mineral acidity.

Terroir

Cooler sloping vineyards located on the foothills of the Pyrenees, in the South-Western France, blended with grapes originating from coastal Mediterranean places.

Winemaking

10 to 12 day fermentation with both French and American oak is followed by a soft 6 month maturation on the wine’s natural lies. Only 50% of the final blend completes malolactic fermentation, which allows to keep some natural acidity. An early bottling allows to capture freshness and primary flavors.

Varietal

Chardonnay
