Lively and thirst-quenching whites with a pale colour, a lean palate and brisk acidity, on delicate aromas of white flowers (hawthorn), citrus, green apple, fresh almond and characteristic alpine mineral notes of flint. Light finish, best drunk young. The absolute star of Vin de Savoie AOC crus (Apremont, Abymes, Chignin, Cruet) on the limestone scree of Mont Granier. Native Savoyard variety, the most planted in the French alpine vineyards.
Wine state of south-east Brazil, with its heart at São Roque ("Terra do Vinho") founded by Italian and Portuguese immigrants in the 18th c. Traditional-method sparkling as stars: fresh, lively bubblies with notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers and brioche, a fine bubble. Supple reds blending Bonarda, Barbera and fleshy Tannat, round tannins. Perfumed Muscat sweet wines (orange blossom, honey).
