Wine Information

The Altesse grapes for Quintessence d’Altesse – in Savoy, the grape variety is also called Roussette, which is why it is also an AOP Roussette de Savoie – are pressed whole bunches before the lees are allowed to settle for 24 hours. The must is then transferred to used barriques, where it ferments and ages on the full lees for a year.

Colour

Medium straw yellow

Nose

This Altesse is an expressive wine, combining an alpine character with the warm summer months. It smells of acacia blossoms, jasmine, and still slightly warm biscuit dough. Ripe yellow fruits, especially stone fruit, but also ripe lemons with zest, a touch of cinnamon, and nutmeg with ripe yellow pear.

Palate

This yin and yang continues on the palate. On the one hand, the Quintessence offers warm, ripe yellow fruit, a light extract and yeast sweetness, oxidation notes of mellow apples and pears, pastry, and a touch of wool wax. On the other hand, there are notes of lemon zest, a ripe but present acidity, and an electrifying minerality. This ultimately leads to a long, full-bodied, tense, and salty finish.
