Domaine Belluard Les Alpes
Domaine Belluard Les Alpes is a pure mountain wine in the truest sense of the word. Made from 100% Gringet grown at 350m altitude, this is a wine that expresses a lungful of mountain glacial air with exuberant acidity that skates across the tongue. The fruit is bright, crystalline and the acidity sings. Aromas of white flowers and jasmine, citrus-edged with a hint of white peach, violet and a twist of aniseed to finish. It’s mineral, focused and filled with energy. A beautiful wine!
Domaine Belluard make use of the virtually unique ancient grape Gringet said to be related to the Savagnin grape of Jura. Research suggests that it was brought back by monks, returning from Cyprus in the 13th century.
The grapes are directly pressed and the juice is fermented with only indigenous yeast in several concrete eggs where it stays for about 6 months.
