Producer: Jean-Yves Péron
Region: Haute-Savoie
Grapes: Muscat à Petit Grains (Mica-schist, Albertville)
Style: Orange
ALC: 11.5%
Size: 75cl bottle
Notes: 2 weeks' maceration of Muscat, before it is pressed and aged in large barrels for a year. Fruit comes from Jean-Yves' tiny parcel of Muscat in Albertville. This iteration has surprisingly restrained aromatics, and is incredibly drinkable. Ripe stone fruit, finishing with a gentle grip and lick of salt. Delicious.
