Andre et Michel Quenard Savoie Chignin-Bergeron le Grand Rebossan 2018

The Savoie is a picture of fairytale perfection: snow-capped peaks, green rolling hills, wildflowers and cold, sparkling mountain streams. This idyllic region hugs the western Alps, where Michel Quenard farms twenty-two hectares of vineyards along the steep, terraced slopes of the Coteau de Tormery around Chignin. 

The minerality of Michel’s vineyards expresses an alpine freshness and liveliness in his wines. His cuvees go beyond a simple “eclectic” that categorizes wines from the region; whether they are quaffed or savored, they are all unique revelations that reflect the complexity of their terroir and the fine artistry of this master vigneron.
