Fendant (local name for Chasselas) from Switzerland. Steely, flinty and bright, lemon and alpine herbal/floral character, underripe almond, finishes with a pleasing roundness.

So rarely do I have the opportunity to taste Swiss wine, which is imported in such minuscule quantities to America’s shores. To my pleasure, Park Tavern has one on the list. This bottle from Cave Caloz is made from Switzerland’s signature grape Chasselas, locally known as Fendant. Juicy with a flamboyant lemon blossom aroma, the wine is round with orchard flavor, yet soft and airy. Somewhat simple, but pure and charming.

Crisp, bright, citrus nose. A little oily on the palette but forgiveable. Very drinkable.
