The wine region of Bex
Swiss sub-region of Chablais in Vaud (predominantly gypsiferous soils, near-Valais climate, active föhn at harvest end): Chasselas is the emblematic signature white — elegant and precise with flint and gunflint mineral notes from the gypsum, white flowers, citrus and a taut saline finish. Syrah and Merlot ripen fully thanks to the föhn — structured and spiced. Pinot Noir as complement, crystalline alpine expression.
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: Reduction
A physiological and chemical phenomenon that occurs in wine in the absence of oxygen. The smell of reduction is characterized by animal and sometimes fetid notes that disappear in principle with aeration. It is recommended to decant reduced wines.
