Appellation Chignin-Bergeron - AOC

The Savoie and Bugey appellation, nestled in the French Alps, symbolizes a rich and varied winemaking tradition. These regions, known for their exceptional natural heritage, offer a diversity of terroirs ideal for vine cultivation. Savoie wines are distinguished by their freshness and minerality, primarily produced from iconic grape varieties such as Jacquère, Altesse, and Mondeuse. Jacquère yields lively and light white wines, perfect for pairing with cheese-based Savoyard specialties. Mondeuse reds are powerful and spicy, revealing the authenticity of the Savoyard terroir. On the other hand, Bugey wines, still relatively unknown, are gaining recognition for their finesse. The Altesse grape, also known as Roussette, offers elegant whites with floral and fruity aromas. Bugey also produces sparkling wines, such as Cerdon, a sparkling rosé with a captivating sweetness. Whether you are a novice or a seasoned oenophile, discovering Savoie and Bugey wines is an invitation to savour the harmony between generous nature and the ancestral craftsmanship of Alpine winemakers. An experience that will enrich your collection and delight your senses.
