Château de Mérande - Le Grand Blanc 2019 Bio, Savoie, Chignin-Bergeron

Rousanne is one of the major white wine grape varieties in Savoie and forms the basis of this gorgeous natural and biodynamic wine. The grapes come from some of the most prized vineyards in Savoie which lend the wine a pretty nose of yellow apples, white peach and lemon. On the palate it's rounded and quite rich but still balanced, as all good Savoie wines are. André and Daniel Genoux work with minimal intervention and their vineyards have never been treated with synthetic chemicals.

WHAT IT SMELLS LIKE A pretty nose of yellow apples, white peach, lemon cream and apricot. You’ll also find a hint of white pepper which adds interest and complexity against those creamy aromatics.
STRUCTURE This wine has the classic Rousanne texture - rich and rounded with balanced acidity. The flavours are complex but dominated by white peach and a touch of bitter almond. It’s almost too easy to go back for a second glass!
PAIRING This would pair perfectly with grilled scallops on leeks, or with stronger flavours such as goat and hard cheeses.
