Chignin Bergeron, “Grand Orgue”

The “Grande Orgue” (or “organ” as in the musical instrument) is the prestige cuvée in white of the domaine. The grapes for this selection come from two parcels of the oldest vines of the estate. Vinified in a manner similar to its companion Chignin-Bergeron, the “Grande Orgue” is more ripe, round and fat without giving up the discipline that makes these wines of the Savoie so compelling. Frequently reaching 13% alcohol without the addition of sugar, this elite wine is marked by notes of anise preceding a penetrating finish of bristling minerality.
