"Dans l’Air du Temps Chardonnay" is a 100% Chardonnay cuvée created by Jeff Carrel, produced using the " Vin de France " method from vines over 10 years old planted in clay-siliceous and marl soils.
The wine is vinified in stainless steel and concrete tanks, with 85% of the malolactic fermentation completed, followed by fermentation and aging in oak. It rests for six months on full lees in oak before continuing its aging on fine lees.
A generous and refined interpretation of Chardonnay, combining richness, freshness, and oaky notes.

Jeff Carrel | The Shop
Jeff Carrel is one of those wine personalities difficult to categorize. A former consulting oenologist who became a négociant-winemaker, he collaborates with vignerons from Languedoc, Roussillon, and the Southwest to create accessible, authentic, and often very well-crafted cuvées for their price point.
His approach is primarily based on fruit, balance, and tasting pleasure. No unnecessary embellishment: Jeff Carrel's wines aim to remain delightful, easy to drink, and true to their terroir. Some cuvées have become true staples for Southern wine enthusiasts, thanks to their consistency and excellent value for money.
Generous reds, fresh and aromatic whites, more ambitious cuvées, or everyday wines: this collection encapsulates Jeff Carrel's universe, featuring bottles that appeal equally to curious amateurs and passionate connoisseurs seeking delightful discoveries.
