‘Cuvée Emilie’ Roussette, Domaine de L’Idylle

£25.00

Rich and elegant Roussette from Savoie

Savoie is an ancient and isolated vine area which deploys idiosyncratic grape varieties (originally introduced by monks from Chartreuse) that are seldom encountered elsewhere – Jacquére and Roussette for white and sparkling wines alongside Mondeuse for reds. The Tiollier family has nurtured vines in and around the village (and sub-appellation) of Cruet on the steep slopes of the Isère valley for generations. Situated in the Regional Nature Reserve of the Massif des Baugeas, Sylvain Tiollier works with his father Philippe and uncle François looking after various plots of vines over 47 acres of prime terroir.

This pure Roussette wine is made from old vines, giving it great depth. Malolactic fermentation is avoided, to preserve freshness, and the wine is matured in oak barrels. Notes of apple and pear, with a creamy mid-weight palate and an elegant dry finish. The perfect wine to have with fondue!
