Domaine Prieuré Saint Christophe - Altesse 2016
Domaine du Prieuré Saint-Christophe, located in Savoie, was created by Michel Grisard. This exceptional winegrower has played a decisive role in the development of the Savoyard terroirs and was one of the forerunners of the biodynamic movement. Now retired, Domaine Giachino has taken over the management of the Domaine du Prieuré Saint-Christophe.
Prieuré Saint-Christophe Blanc is made from Altesse, cultivated on 1.40 hectares. During manual harvesting, the whole bunches are harvested and then undergo a short skin maceration on arrival at the press. After cold settling, the juice is transferred to barrels for 12 months, then 6 months in vats.
Grape variety: 100% Altesse
