🏰 Gilles Berlioz is celebrated for his meticulous care of the Chignin terroirs in Savoie, employing horses for ploughing and achieving Demeter (biodynamic) certification since 2015. He crafts single-cuvée wines per terroir, showcasing their unique characteristics. Chignin Bergeron is made from the Roussanne grape, known locally as Bergeron in Savoie. While specific vintage reports for Savoie 2023 are still emerging, the 2024 vintage of his 'Les Filles' cuvée, a similar Bergeron wine, is noted for its fruity and floral dominant style. Generally, these wines are concentrated and serious, with excellent aging potential, often compared to Northern Rhône Roussanne. Expect a complex profile with aromas and flavours of white fruits like peach, apple, and pear, alongside apricots, dried white flowers, walnuts, honey, and straw. The palate is typically succulent and smooth, with a medium body, low acidity, and a distinctive flinty minerality that lingers on the finish. 🍴 This expressive white wine from Savoie is a fantastic match for crab and lobster, poultry (especially roast chicken), and dishes with butter sauces or pâté. It also complements refined Savoy cheeses, fish, slightly saline foods, and rich gratins like Potatoes au Gratin. 🥂 Ideal for a gourmet meal, a special gathering with friends, or as a unique gift for those who appreciate biodynamic wines with a strong sense of place. 【Biodynamic certification and terroir-driven approach in Savoie, producing a concentrated Roussanne akin to Northern Rhône styles】
