Le Petite Cordillère 2023

🍇100% Chenin

The chalky freshness of this Chenin makes your teeth water. On the nose there are herbal notes like verbena and green tea. On the palate you will find citrus and clementine peel. Good tension and depth.

Jérôme and Stéphane Bernatas own seven hectares of vineyards spread across three communes near Limoux: La Digne d'Amont, Castelreng and Magrie. Unlike many local producers, they focus on making still wines from Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc and Mauzac grapes. The brothers adhere to biodynamic principles in their vineyard practices, with sites such as La Petite Cordillère, known for its steep slopes and breathtaking views of the Pyrenean foothills. What sets Bernatas wines apart in the region is their precision and freshness, the result of high-altitude vineyard locations and meticulous cellaring techniques.
