More informations about the variety Altesse

Structured, aromatic whites with an ample palate and firm acidity, featuring aromas of white flowers (acacia), white peach, ripe pear, honey, candied citrus, toasted almond and alpine mineral notes. Good length and ageing potential. Absolute star of Roussette de Savoie AOC (especially crus Frangy, Marestel, Monthoux) and Roussette du Bugey AOC. Autochthonous Savoyard variety; legend has it that it was brought from Cyprus by Crusaders in the 14th century.

More informations about the region of Vaud

Iconic Vaud vineyard (Switzerland) on terraced slopes along Lake Geneva's north shore, UNESCO-listed in 2007. Chasselas reigns as signature white: fine and delicate with signature notes of white flowers, citrus, white apple, fresh almond and a chalky mineral touch, a taut and straight palate — Swiss soul, for aperitif or fondue. Fine Pinot Noir (cherry, undergrowth) and supple Gamay as minority reds. 8 AOCs including prestigious Dezaley and Saint-Saphorin.
