White + Chasselas + 2024 + 70cl + 12.2% vol. + Grand Cru + AOC Lavaux

Notes: Crisp, stone fruit, toast & pepper

Appearance: Pours a beautiful, brilliant pale yellow.

Aroma: Opens with a restrained, sophisticated nose that unfolds into savoury notes, toasted brioche, ripe melon, and yellow peaches.

Palate: Begins with a soft, round attack, leading to a juicy acidity layered with clean minerals, bright citrus, white pepper, and fresh garden herbs.

Finish: Exceptionally fresh and remarkably long, showcasing a highly attractive profile that beautifully develops and opens up in the glass.

Pairing: 

Freshwater fish: Cores perfectly with the delicate fats of pan-fried perch fillets, trout meunière or féra.

Roasted poultry & white meats: Beautiful with a roast chicken served with olive-oil grilled vegetables, veal piccata, or frogs' legs.

Shellfish & Seafood: harmonizes spectacularly with crab, lobster, and pan-seared scallops.

Earthy Mushrooms: brilliant with pan-seared wild mushrooms or a golden chanterelle tart.

Aperitif & cheeses: Ideal for starting a meal alongside charcuterie. Excellent with rich melted cheese dishes like fondue and raclette or with aged hard cheeses
