Vintage 2021
Style White
Region Brison Saint Innocent, Savoie
Varieties Altesse
ABV 12.5%
Soils Clay, gravel on limestone and marl scree
Farming Organic, practising biodynamic
Winemaking The Altesse is planted on the steep slope right by Charlotte’s front yard and directly overlooking the lake. Whole bunches are pressed following a long yet extremely gentle cycle. Fermentation and ageing takes place in a 50/50 split of cuve and barrel, similarly to Hauts Les Coeurs, although the Altesse naturally offers more body and weight than the Jacquère.
Tasting Note Crunchy apple, wet stones, fresh apricots and almond milk notes.
