2020 L’Alpage is Chasselas (local name Fendant) from the Valais
Nose of citrus blossom, vanilla and Shea butter, berries in nougat, then full circle to limeade, tangerine zest and citrus hard candies…day 2 some clam & oyster shells
Lots of quinine, granite, quartz, lemon pith and lime zest on palate…day 2 some peach — 3 years ago
Notes if vanilla, leafy greens and cooked green apples on the nose, with hints of dried mango and a little bit of creme brûlée deep in the fragrance. Leggy, with a medium body and a pale yellow/green color it’s my first experience with Fendant and it’s impressive! The palate is silky and slightly vegetal, with notes of cinnamon apple sauce, maybe fresh leeks even, with a long dry finish with hints of creamy ricotta that pairs beautifully with a sausage, peppers, potato, onion and egg scramble! It’s not a seafood white really, it’s more fit for a veggies, eggs and chicken Alfredo wine. — 6 months ago
