Details
Chardonnay is the life of the party – sometimes a little flashy, sometimes effortlessly cool – and this one hits that sweet spot in between. Think ripe peach and pear with a citrus twist, all wrapped in a silky hug. There’s a touch of creamy richness, but it’s still fresh enough to keep the conversation flowing.
The French wine scene can be somewhat of a minefield at times, all we really want is a supplier that makes wines from all across the country while still displaying regional and sub-regional typicity.. Simple right?!? Well, enter Maison Johanès Boubée which is a winery that has succeeded in the French landscape, while relatively unknown outside its borders. The winery has access to all the goodies around the country and aside from an impressive winemaking team, it also has employed sommeliers to taste each wine to confirm it meets that all important terroir feel of each region. The winery is a nod to the old-school way, where you didn’t need to boast a fancy label to sell a bottle of wine and the juice inside is the most important part. We have tasted through a large range of their wines and are very impressed with the overall quality in each bottle. Héritage de Carillan focuses on classic varieties like Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay with a vintage twist.

Fresh yet rounded, Héritage de Carillan Chardonnay offers notes of ripe stone fruit, citrus, and a gentle touch of oak. Its balance makes it a versatile partner for a wide range of dishes—from roast chicken and creamy seafood pastas to grilled salmon and mushroom risotto. It’s also lovely with soft cheeses, quiches, or a simple roast vegetable salad. For an easy weeknight option, pair it with fish and chips and a wedge of lemon.

Wine region

Southern France, France
Also known as the Languedoc-Roussillon wine region in the south of France is one of the largest wine-producing regions in the world. It is known for producing a wide variety of wines, including reds, whites, rosés, and sparkling wines. The region's Mediterranean climate and varied soil types, such as schist and limestone, impart distinct flavours and aromas to the grapes grown there. The area has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the Roman era, and is known for producing high-volume, high-quality wines. The most famous wines from Southern France are typically blends of indigenous grape varieties like Syrah, Grenache, Carignan, and Mourvèdre. The region is a popular destination for wine tourists, offering tastings, tours, and wine festivals.
