Domaine Vendange Jacquère La Côte 2020
Savoie, FranceLocated in Combe de Savoie, on the foothills of the Massif des Bauges, Domaine Vendange stretches over 10 organically farmed hectares, on south facing slopes of youthful glacial till / limestone scree. The Vendange family has been involved with the viticulture and agronomic industries for many years, and are one of the largest vine nurseries in the region. After studying viticulture and oenology in Beaune, Benjamin Vendange returned in 2015 to the family property. With his partner Diane Gounel, oenologist from Languedoc-Roussillon, the step was taken to start their own estate with the family’s holdings. This Jacquère comes from 25 year old vines, and was native fermented and briefly rested in stainless, with a little bâtonnage post ferment. Light and lifted, with tight lemon, green apple, white grapefruit, kissed with elderflower and anise, and finishing with a salted citrus twist. Limestone buzzy and bright, there's no mistaking the alpine nature of this fresh white.Tasted: 08 March 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $25.00 | 750ml | private liquor stores |
