IGP Vin des Allobroges - Cevins Schiste Ardoisières (Domaine des) 2022
The wine
Our absolute favourite. Only 7000 bottles of the Schiste cuvée are produced per year. It’s made from an incredibly rare blend of four typical Savoie grape varieties: Jacquère, Malvoisie, Roussanne and Mondeuse blanche. The vines are cultivated on spectacular, fully south-facing plains and have a low yield of 25hl/h. Indigenous yeasts are used in the fermentation, which takes place in barrels which have already seen three to five wines. The result is an incredibly crystal-clear, razor-sharp sensation on the palate. A majestic white wine.
About the Producer Ardoisières (Domaine des)
The Domaine des Ardoisières was created ex nihilo in 1998 on land that had been planted with vines in Roman times, but which had not produced wine for centuries. Michel Grisard, one of the leading Savoyard producers, was the driving force behind the project for a long time, before handing it over to the current manager, Brice Omont. The vineyard is cultivated according to biodynamic principles and vinification is extremely natural with as little intervention as possible. The property produces three white wines and two reds. The "Schiste" cuvée (7,000 bottles) is produced from four traditional Savoyard varieties: Jacquère, Malvoisie, Roussanne and Mondeuse Blanche. The vines are grown on spectacular south-facing terraces, with small yields of 25 hl/ha. Vinification, with indigenous yeasts is carried out in barrels which have already been used for three to five wines.
