One of these top wines is this Lafage Cadireta.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Wood-aged French Chardonnay \u003c\/h2\u003eThe Domaine Lafage Cadireta owes its name to a small chair. A cadireta is a small chair. This chair used to be brought out in good weather and served as a temporary seat to watch passersby. It is now the name of the vineyard planted with Chardonnay vines, and they are the only ones left to watch passersby. This Domaine Lafage Cadireta is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes and therefore has a beautiful, full character. The vineyards are located near the Mediterranean Sea, which gives the grapes a lovely refreshing effect. The Mediterranean climate also contributes to this. The warm days and cooler nights are a perfect combination for ripening. When the Chardonnay grapes are perfectly ripe at the end of the growing season, the harvest begins. Bunch by bunch, they are hand-selected and harvested. The bunches are then transported to the press in small crates. During vinification, 30% of the juice is aged in oak barrels. The remainder is aged in stainless steel tanks. After this, the entire wine is aged for another month in 600-liter oak barrels for a perfect finish.\n\n\n\n \u003ch2\u003eWhat does this Lafage Cadireta taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e Well, we can definitely call this Lafage Chardonnay perfect. What a gem! Starting with the color, we see a straw yellow with golden reflections in the glass, typical of an oak-aged Chardonnay. The aroma reveals impressions of ripe tropical fruit, flowers, and a touch of oak aging. The palate of this Lafage Cadireta Cotes Catalanes is round and ripe with plenty of soft flavors of tropical fruit, vanilla, oak, peach, apricot, and a hint of citrus peel and honey. A superb Chardonnay with a capital E!","brand":"Boomsma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775888232527,"sku":"7884","price":11.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/lafage-cadireta-cotes-catalanes_7884.webp?v=1770110756","url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/products\/lafage-cadireta","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
