In the mouth, Maison Anselmet's Chardonnay demonstrates extraordinary harmony, with a rich and enveloping structure balanced by a lively acidity. The fruity and woody notes intertwine in a complex palate, culminating in a long and persistent finish that leaves a feeling of elegance and satisfaction.
