Opened 10 days ago. Just a bit too oxidized but after a few days in Cali bothers it settled down and be a serviceable food wine, good acidity, not much complexity, oxidation blew off. — 9 months ago

Anne de Chypre Roussette de Savoie Altesse 2018

This deserves higher ratings! I love Alpine whites. Never had Altesse before, but it reminds me of good Swiss Chasselas. Very dry of course, but distinctly mineral and mountainous with a fruity, elegant aroma. — 5 years ago

Quintessence d'Altesse Roussette de Savoie 2018

Huge nose. Huge aromas. Green apple, spice, white alpine fields of flowers. Also fresh tilled dirt. Like the freshest. Huge earnest and vocal aromatic minerality reminds me of Chenin Muscadet. Like Coteaux de Loir or Jasnieres. So layered and complex. Really just ethereal and so distinct. This is one of the longest aging Altesse out there. Wow, so elegant and pure with just searing mineral force. Juicy and so balanced with unreal acidity and depth. This is not for everyone in that it has a severity/austerity not meant for every drinker but all my geeks will adore this. So luscious. It’s the liquid equivalent of a long, meandering Tarkovsky film like Stalker or Nostalgia. Love it. — 5 years ago
