The wine region of Bugey
AOC of Ain between Jura and Savoie, 60% sparkling. Cerdon as star: ancestral-method sparkling rosé Gamay + Poulsard, with signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, grenadine, flowers and an English-candy touch, fine bubbles and lightly alcoholic palate — the festive springtime apéritif. Whites lively Chardonnay, taut Jacquère (white flowers, lemon), floral Roussette. Gamay, Pinot Noir reds, peppery Mondeuse.
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: Aging on lees
Maturing on the lees enhances the stability, aromatic complexity and texture of white wines, which gain in body and volume. This phenomenon is induced by autolysis, the process of self-degradation of the lees.
