A beautifully complex wine with lots of ripe apple and nuttiness on the nose on the palate it has a lovely acidity with a smooth round and persistent finish.
Our Verdesse is designated in maturity in order to break with the green side of the verdesse emblematic grape variety of our region. We get a very one or intense robe. It looks like a Chardonnay with a nose of rare intensity. It is very fresh on the palate and very well balanced with an incredible length with its spicy notes. It is buttery and yet it is not heavy: it is a real shock that awaits you.
Thomas Finot gained his experience winemaking in various appellations of France. In 2007 he discovered the terroir of Grésivaudan in Isère as well as its heritage and its viticultural potential. His passion and knowledge of winemaking allow him to craft beautiful wines from local grape varieties such as Verdesse in white, Persian and Etraire de la Dhuy in red, as well as internationally recognised grape varieties such as Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Viognier. Thomas Finot is a young and eco-conscious winemaker, taking extreme care of his vineyard and vinifying in a traditional way, without too much intervention, to allow the grape varieties and the terroir to express themselves through his wines.
