Zingy acidity with grapefruit and pear balanced by a smooth finish with toasty almond notes. A lovely expression of one of the classic grapes of the Savoie: Jacquère.
The wine has a bright white and straw yellow colour. The nose provides subtle aromas of ripe fruits (pears, grapefruit…). You will also feel notes of fresh butter and soft spice flavour creating an interesting complexity. The wine has a frank attack: it is fleshy and has a slight woody taste. On the palate, this wine is well balanced by a natural acidity creating a nice freshness. The finish has lots of toasted almond flavour.
Le Domaine de l’Idylle nestles on the edge of the valley of the Combe de Savoie, deep in the French Alps. The Tiollier family has been working this terroir to produce a range of subtle, fine Savoie wines since 1840. Respecting nature and tradition are the key values of this family run vineyard.
