Domaine Belluard
Les Alpes Savoie Gringet
Pretty goldenrod color. Very interesting nose of bruised apple and herbal/ vegetal aromas, like celery root. Palate adds plenty of zippy lemon and grapefruit and an alpine floral quality, chamomile tea, faintly yeasty on the back. Savory and delicious

Oct 10th, 2020Wow, this is a zinger. Starts with a wild herbal quality- a little feral sauv blanc note, with grapefruit and pine resin. Lightweight at first like a Muscadet but then it explodes like dynamite in a granite rock. The palate is just a bundle of minerality, acid and energy. Finish does not let go. Awesome.

Simultaneously focused and diverse. Golden apple, concentrated preserved lemon, alpine meadow, pressed chamomile, almond. Savory rock salt quality. Still quite vibrant, in contrast to the CellarTracker reviews for the vintage, though would agree that it should be enjoyed presently. Slightly hot, even though 12%abv
