Les Calcaires 2023 – Domaine des Landions

A high-precision Chardonnay from Domaine des Landions, Les Calcaires 2023 offers a tense, mineral and refined interpretation of the Neuchâtel terroir. Combining purity of fruit, subtle oak integration and limestone-driven freshness, this cuvée stands out for its elegance and depth.

Terroir & Philosophy

Sourced from limestone-rich soils, this wine reflects the precise and demanding approach of Domaine des Landions, one of the leading estates in Neuchâtel. The limestone terroir brings tension, length and structure, giving the wine a linear profile and a naturally saline finish.

Made from Chardonnay and aged in oak with restraint, Les Calcaires emphasizes clarity and refinement. The oak supports the wine without dominating, enhancing texture while preserving energy, freshness and terroir expression.

The 2023 vintage highlights a fine balance between ripeness and freshness. The wine shows precision, elegant structure and a strong mineral backbone, reminiscent of top Chardonnay wines from limestone-driven terroirs.
