2017 Ch. de Merande, Apremont 1248, Domaine Genoux

Style – Dry, White Wine, Light Bodied
Grapes – Jacquere
Region – Vin de Savoie, France

Winemaking - A vinification that combines tradition and modernism may above all leave time to time. The goal is to bottle the grapes without brutalizing them

What it tastes like - A lovely Savoie white with an intriguing name: 1248 was the date of a massive landslide when part of the Mont Granier collapsed and buried countless villages. The name Apremont, or bitter mountain, seems therefore appropriate. This delicious, light and flinty wine offers much less risky exploration, even if it is perilously quaffable! 

Dietary – Organic, Biodynamic
ABV – 12%
