Vin de France (anciennement Vin de Savoie) Marius et Simone Giachino 2020

The wine

This cuvée owes its name to the wine growers’ maternal grandparents. Produced using controlled yields of Jacquère, the unique vinification lends this wine its golden colour and bouquet of dried fruits (almonds, hazelnuts), spices and citrus fruits, as well as robust, floral and mineral flavors. Just like a red, entire bunches of grapes undergo a long maceration before fermenting and maturing the wine on its lees in barrels. This intense, complex and fine wine is therefore ideal for cellaring for around ten years.

About the Producer Giachino

Established 20 years ago, Domaine Giachino has grown its grapes organically and produced organic wines for nearly 10 years. The vineyard lies on the slopes of Mont Garnier, on the outskirts of Chambéry in the communes of Chapareillan, Marches and Apremont. The grapes are picked by hand so that they can be kept in perfect condition until pressing. This also enables sorting of the bunches, with only the best being selected. As a result, the property does not need to use any additives or vinification products.
