The wine region of Lavaux
Iconic Vaud vineyard (Switzerland) on terraced slopes along Lake Geneva's north shore, UNESCO-listed in 2007. Chasselas reigns as signature white: fine and delicate with signature notes of white flowers, citrus, white apple, fresh almond and a chalky mineral touch, a taut and straight palate — Swiss soul, for aperitif or fondue. Fine Pinot Noir (cherry, undergrowth) and supple Gamay as minority reds. 8 AOCs including prestigious Dezaley and Saint-Saphorin.
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: Ancestral method
A method of making certain sparkling wines such as blanquette de Limoux, sparkling gaillac or clairette de Die, which consists of a second fermentation in the bottle based on natural sugars and yeasts naturally brought by the grapes (unlike the méthode champenoise, which requires the addition of tirage liquor).
