Epesses Grand Cru

The grape variety:

Chasselas
with limited yield, carefully selected from the estate’s oldest plots. Chasselas, grown exclusively in the Lake Geneva and Rhône valleys, has found a perfect home on our steep, perfectly exposed slopes. It occupies the majority of Lavaux’s surface area.

The wine:

This pale yellow Epesses reveals intense, complex fruity and mineral notes. Lemon, green apple, fig and gunflint blend harmoniously with other scents such as hyacinth, ripe banana and hawthorn.

The palate expresses itself with a full attack and a powerful mid-palate well balanced between acidity and roundness. It continues with a fine bitterness and lingering aromas of lemon, seafood and gunflint.

10 to 12 °C
