More informations about the variety Chasselas
Light, lively whites with a tender palate and low acidity, with discreet aromas of fresh hazelnut, white flowers, light honey, apple and strongly terroir-driven mineral notes ("chameleon wine" of Swiss soils). Made as dry, often slightly sparkling whites. Absolute star of Vaud (Dézaley, Calamin, Lavaux Grand Cru) and Valais (Fendant) in Switzerland. Also in Pouilly-sur-Loire AOC and the German Jura. Excellent table grape.

Swiss vineyard on steep slopes around Lake Biel, micro-climate tempered by the water and 70+ grape varieties. Signature Chasselas reigns in white: mineral and nervy with signature notes of white flowers, citrus, white apple, flint and a lakeside saline touch, taut, thirst-quenching palate — the Bernese soul as aperitif or with cheese. Fine, silky Pinot Noir (red cherry, undergrowth). Ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), fresh Chardonnay, straight Pinot Blanc.
