Details and technical informations about Winery Alain Emery's Chasselas Grand Cru.
Discover the grape 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.

The wine region of Aigle
AOC Chablais vaudois (135 ha, Chasselas capital): Chasselas reigns exclusively in white — aromatic, elegant and powerful, aromas of white fruits, citrus, flowers and mineral touch, freshness and tension preserved. Steep south-facing slopes supported by dry stone walls, gravelly-schistous well-drained soils, generous sunshine, warm dry foehn influence, centuries-old terraces — among the finest Swiss Chasselas.
The wine region of Vaud
World reference for Chasselas (~60% of the vineyard). Mineral, delicate whites with signature notes of green apple, citrus, white flowers, fresh almond and a saline touch, low acidity and a silky palate. Maximum expression in Lavaux (UNESCO 2007) on Lake Geneva terraces. Also La Côte, Chablais and the iconic Dézaley.
The word of the wine: Amylic
Aroma reminiscent of banana, candy, and sometimes nail polish, particularly present in primeur wines. The amylic taste is reminiscent of the aromas of industrial confectionery and does not reflect a great expression of terroir.
