In the glass
Aroma: green almond, dried fruit
A Chardonnay and Savagnin blend from the small L'Etoile appellation, bottled after two years in cask. The domaine records a powerful nose of green almond and dried fruit, and serves it at 12 to 14 degrees.
What it pairs with
-
Escargots a la persillade
Named first on the domaine's serving card for this cuvee. -
Cheese fondue
Mouillard lists fondue; the blend's structure holds against melted cheese. -
Cheese tart
The producer's own suggestion, playing off the wine's dried-fruit register. -
White meat
Listed by the domaine; enough weight for poultry and veal without oak dominance.
