Tasting Notes

A bright and aromatic nose with peach, apricot and nectarine with fresh lemon and lime. The concentration of flavor on the palate has the stone fruit but additional dehydrated apples and pears with bright acidity and a medium style texture. 

 

The winery has been run since the mid nineties by two brothers, Denis & Didier Berthollier, who come from a long winemaking tradition of growers, owners, and winemakers dating back to 1850. Today, denis and Didier own several parcels on the southernmost and steepest parts of the Savoie hills. Their forefathers abandoned these aburpt slopes at the beginning of the 20th century because they were too difficult to work on. Denis and Didier harvest, vinify and do the bottling themwselves at their domaine. The have elimated the use of insecticides and fungicides in all of their vines and and ceased the use of weedkiller since 2008, enabling grass to grow in the rocky slope vineyards. They only use naturally occurring, indigenous yeast and very minimal SO2. Their wines are recognized among the purest and finest in the Savoie region.
