Raymond Barlet et Fils, Jacquère "La Cave du Prieuré", Savoie, France 2023
{sustainable} 100% Jacquère
QUINCE & HONEYDEW, FRESH BLOSSOMS & STONE
Oh so delicate yet assertively bright and dealing in sharp, chiseled flavors, this Jacquère provides a litany of arguments for why it has become the most significant variety of Alpine France’s Savoie. Pearish, appley, citrusy fruit forges an ensemble cast with bright mineral notes and floral, herbaceous whispers.This is the stuff that mountain dreams are made of…but also great with ocean fare.
Serving Suggestion: Clams in white wine w/ juniper berries, garlic, & capers. Fondue. Buttery cabbage quiche w/ gouda & hazelnuts.
