A full-bodied palate for an exceptional, slightly honeyed finish.

Ground
Our vineyard extends over clay-limestone soils of the alpine diluvium with a high proportion of rolled pebbles which make the reputation of our wine.
Winemaking
The vinification benefits from modern equipment, pneumatic press and scraper for certain cuvées; Fermentation takes place under temperature control using cold equipment. This method of vinification allows us to have more fruity wines as well as better conservation.

Sommelier's advice
Serve it chilled at a temperature of 12 - 14°C
An excellent aperitif, it will hold its own alongside pike-perch with white butter, lobster or even Bresse poultry, as well as with creamy goat's cheese...
