One of iDealwine's favourites. A pure and polished wine with a pleasant level of acidity lifted by notes of citrus fruit and pine resin.
More infoThe white Argiles cuvée is pure and polished wine with a pleasant level of acidity lifted by notes of citrus fruit and pine resin. A blend of Chardonnay, Jacquère and Mondeuse blanche, this wine is fermented in barrels and vats with indigenous yeasts before an 8-month élevage. A lovely wine, perfect for an evening with friends, to be drunk with cheese or to accompany oven-baked fish and a lemony, butter sauce.
"Assemblage de jacquère (majoritaire), mondeuse blanche et d’un peu de chardonnay pour arrondir la cuvée. Une belle fraîcheur et une rondeur, ainsi que des notes de citron mûr et une belle minéralité. Son potentiel de garde ? 5 ans sans problème voire 10 ans dans les grands millésimes." (dégusté au domaine en mars 2024)

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.
