The "Jeunes Vignes" vintage of Clairette de Bellegarde, crafted by Jérome Chardon, stands out for its finesse and complexity. Made from grapes grown using rigorous biodynamic methods, it benefits from a unique terroir where siliceous pebbles promote optimal ripening. During vinification, the grapes are gently pressed to obtain a juice of great purity. This Clairette, still young, shows great promise for aging in the bottle.
