Why we love it
The idea of authenticity led me to start a voyage to the region of Savoie.
Many historical grape varieties are grown in this part of France. Jean-Yves Peron decided to use "Altesse" (= your highness) from his 3.5 ha plot with the winery situated next to the alps. This is one of his most significant wines.
Orange wine implies an ancient wine-making technique of extended maceration. In this wine, the grapes had been in skin-contact in 3.5 months! Completed with malolactic fermentation.
This wine is floral, very dry with hints of oxidative notes. Concentrated, intensive with a long mineral finish.
