Jul 29th, 2024While this may in fact be the first Swiss wine I've tasted, I know the varietal has been part of our local Okanagan wine scene for some time. I find that the particular bottle lacks the punch or brightness that I long for while tasting it... In particular, the finish is very short, but that said, this aromatic wine does provide a pleasant bouquet of ripe pear on the nose and a minerality on the palate that would prove popular on a patio in the summer. It seems simple ad effervescent to me.

Cave De La Côte Chasselas 2018: Made from 100% Chasselas (a traditional and uniquely Swiss varietal grown in the vineyards around Romandie, Western Switzerland), this wine is light, clean & fresh. Well-balanced with nice acidity and hints of white fruit & pineapple. All in all, a beautifully aromatic & versatile wine that is more elegant than its price point and ready for almost any wine occasion. Cheers🇨🇭🍷
