WINEMAKER: David Dupasquier
REGION: Savoie, FR
VARIETY: Jacquere
VITICULTURE: Organic

This wine is created by a family owned vineyard in the mountains of the Savoie region in the Northern Alps. It's made with a grape called Jacquere, making fresh crispy wines with wet stone notes. These wines are often enjoyed while skiing in the French Alps with cheese fondue, or a raclette but also make a great aperitif at any time of year. This wine brings a brightness and purity that is extremely pleasant and drinkable. Dry, crispy and interesting! Such a fun discovery if you haven't tried a wine from the French Alps before. - Halle Aux Vins, Importer. Whole bunch grapes are pressed in small lots to preserve the whole fruits. Pneumatic pressed, fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks using natural indigenous yeasts. The wine is aged on fine lees in stainless steel for 11 months before being slightly filtered. Bottled in September. Light and bright color, the wine is fresh, digestible and crispy. Notes of citrus fruits and grapefruits, beautiful minerality. Racy and fresh this will be perfect to quench the thirst after some crazy hill climbs. How do they do it?
