André et Michel Quenard
Vieilles Vignes Chignin Jacquère
Chignin, Savoie, France
Medium straw in the glass with a very distinctive green tinge. Ocean spray aromas greet you initially but the fruit soon takes over. Green apples, quince, and honeysuckle. Butterscotch and lime zest. Terribly pretty.
Pure Jacquère from 70 year old vines in Savoie. Pleasing minerality with soft acidity. Exceedingly fresh, this is a lively and energetic wine. Displays enough depth and focus to keep you interested throughout. Honey, nuts, and dried herbs join those citrus notes from the nose on the palate. Pour a glass, sit it down and forget about it for a while. Let it warm up in the glass and you’ll be rewarded.
