Coulee De Proserpine

Description

The Bertholier vineyards cling to the rugged inclines of the Savoie hills, and to reach them we must go for 5 or 6 kilometres along steep paths that wind across the hills around Chignin, Francin and Montmé-lian. The family’s vineyard holding was implanted in and around Chignin, on lands composed of glacial moraine and limestone scree.

TASTING NOTES

Brilliant gold in colour. Powerful aromas of dried apricots, honey, white peach and exotic fruit underlined by a hint of spice and smokiness. Full and powerful palate of dried apricot, candied fruit and citrus with an underlying richness. Beautifully fresh with a slight spiciness associated with superb minerality.

FOOD PAIRINGS

As an aperitif with canapés. With salmon carpaccio, white meats and freshwater fish, rich, soft cheeses, goat’s cheese or Roquefort
