Roussanne interpreted with mountain clarity and restrained depth.

Luminous

Layered

Herbal

Textured

A textured, savoury Roussanne shaped by altitude and careful ageing.

Nose: Apricot, alpine honey, white peach and roasted almond, with aniseed and mountain herbs.
Palate: Round and silky yet taut, with stone fruit, beeswax and crushed rock held by a firm line of acidity.
Finish: Long and savoury, with bitter citrus zest and a saline close.
Serve: Cool, not cold. Straight from the fridge the fruit holds back; ten minutes on the table and it speaks.

A poised expression of Roussanne that balances breadth with alpine tension.

Roussanne cultivated on the limestone-rich slopes of Chignin in Savoie, where altitude tempers ripeness and preserves freshness.

Vines: 100% Roussanne from carefully selected hillside parcels.
Soils: Clay-limestone soils contributing structure and mineral precision.
Farming: Organic viticulture, hand-harvested fruit, attentive vineyard management.
Cellar: Whole-cluster pressing, spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel and older demi-muids, then ageing on fine lees to build texture.
Additions: Minimal sulphur, no fining or filtration.
