Lively and structured dry whites with a pale golden colour, slender palate and razor-sharp acidity, with signature aromas of citrus (lemon), white flowers (acacia), white stone fruit (apple, pear) and Loire mineral notes. An airy and taut profile. Traditional component of Cheverny AOC and Valençay AOC appellations, signing characterful Loire blends. An indigenous French white variety from Touraine and Sologne (also called Arbois), nearly extinct then recently rediscovered.

The wine region of Vin de Savoie

French Alpine AOC between lakes and mountains (~1,755 ha, 71% whites). Lively, mineral whites dominate. Signature Jacquere of the Apremont, Abymes, Chignin crus: with signature notes of white flowers, green apple, citrus, almond and gunflint, a taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Savoyard aperitif with fondue or raclette. Altesse (Roussette) more noble and broad (honey, hazelnut, ripe citrus).

The wine region of Savoie

French Alpine vineyard with unique native grapes. Signature Jacquère in whites (~50% of the vineyard): lively, light dry wines with white flowers, green apple, citrus, fresh almond and a mineral touch, perfect with fondue and raclette. Ampler Altesse (Roussette) (pear, honey, hazelnut). Fruity, peppery Mondeuse reds (cherry, violet, firm tannins), light Gamay and fine Pinot Noir.

The word of the wine: Reassembly

During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
