The soils in the region, characterized by limestone formations, provide ideal conditions for growing Chardonnay. The limestone imparts a characteristic minerality to the grapes, while the diverse terroirs of the vineyards bring out subtle nuances in the wines. Careful selection of vineyards and respect for the natural balance of the soil contribute to Domaine Fabien Coche wines reflecting their unique terroir imprint in a fascinating way.
The general flavor profile of Chardonnay wines includes aromas of green apples, citrus fruits, peaches, and often tropical fruits. Depending on the winemaking process, Chardonnay can also exhibit notes of butter, vanilla, or toasted oak, especially when aged in barrels (barrique).
