This wine is made from the Mondeuse grape variety, hand-harvested on the vigorous slopes of the Combe de Savoie. The meticulous winemaking process includes a cold pre-fermentation maceration followed by a long immersion of 25 to 40 days, ensuring optimal expression of aromas. The complex aging process, first in tanks and then in barrels for 40 months, imparts exceptional depth to the wine, while the quality of the terroir enriches its unique character.

Our opinion on the vintage

Visually, this wine displays a deep purple color with garnet highlights. On the nose, it captivates with an aromatic complexity that blends fruits like blackberry and prune, enhanced by subtle spicy notes. On the palate, the attack is supple, revealing flavors of violet and licorice that unfold with elegance and a long finish. The finish is distinguished by delicate tannins that add a structured and persistent dimension. This harmonious balance pairs perfectly with red meats, game, or aged cheeses.

Savoie | France

At the gateway to the Chartreuse mountains, Domaine Giachino benefits from a distinctly mountain environment, where the altitude and temperature variations impart a natural freshness to the wines. The vineyard has been cultivated organically for many years, with constant attention paid to the clarity of expression and the balance of ripeness.

Jacquère and Mondeuse form the heart of the production. Jacquère yields crisp, lively white wines, structured by a clean acidity and an almost saline sensation, directly linked to the Alpine environment. Mondeuse is crafted in a taut and approachable style, favoring the freshness of the fruit and fine tannins over concentration.

The winemaking process strives for precision and clarity, with limited intervention and discreet aging. The wines are distinguished by their vibrancy and drinkability, offering a clear and contemporary expression of the Savoyard terroirs, where freshness remains a key characteristic.
