Organic. 100% Chardonnay. This is a rare late release of the vintage ‘Tuilerie’ bottling; here ‘L.V.’ stands for super long lees aging. Sourced entirely from a 1.20 ha plot called La Tuilerie located in the middle altitude slopes of Vandieres (Mi-Coteau). The vines average 25 years in age - the soil is white sand & limestone with marine subsoil (about 1.5-2 meters under the surface) and the land is directly facing south at 100-120 meters above sea level. Spontaneous fermentation in a combination of small oak barrels and stainless steel. Ageing in small oak barrels for the vin clair. The vin clair is not chaptalized, fined, filtered, or cold stabilized and naturally goes through malo on its own in the Spring. 119 months in cellar on lees (under capsule, not cork as in some of the other Nowack bottlings). Dosage 0 g/L.
