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: Phylloxera
Aphid that came from America and ravaged European vineyards at the end of the 19th century. It lives on the roots of the vine, from which it pumps the sap. The only vines capable of resisting it had to be imported from the United States, and then grafted onto their root system the wood of traditional French grape varieties. Today, grafted vines are always planted.
