Description
WINEMAKER: Caroline Ledédénte
REGION: Bugey, FR
VARIETY: Jacquère
VITICULTURE: Organic
"Jacquère (negocé) from Savoie. The plot is made up of clay-limestone terroir. The grapes are crushed then pressed in a vertical ratchet press, followed by 9 months of aging in use barriques. Not fined or filtered. Zero added SO2. Flinty nose with a lick of lime on rocks and limestone minerality. Almost smokey. Very fresh in the mouth, and light but with reasonable weight. Lime, nectarines, kiwifruit and apples. Straight and direct delivery with good tension. Nice mouthfeel – has power but is refreshing and low alc at 10.5%. Acidity is medium plus and this is long in the mouth. Cool original alpine feel and great for summer!" - Ryan Larkin

The beautiful labels are designed by Caroline herself. She does a series of linocuts, to create each print - another beautiful touch from this artisan vigneronne.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
