This is an Altesse a relatively rare grape variety. Minerally, floral, pretty good acidity.

Fresh, aromatic floral, mineral and white stone fruits, crisp, lively, lovely acid backbone, medium-bodied, medium-long finish, very good Altesse!!

This deserves higher ratings! I love Alpine whites. Never had Altesse before, but it reminds me of good Swiss Chasselas. Very dry of course, but distinctly mineral and mountainous with a fruity, elegant aroma.
