Product Description
The 2023 La Tène Chardonnay from Cave La Tène captures the precision and finesse of alpine viticulture. Grown on limestone-rich soils at high altitude in the Vaud region, this Swiss Chardonnay offers crystalline fruit purity, bright acidity, and a delicate mineral texture that speaks clearly of its cool-climate origins.
