Domaine des Ardoisières - Silica White 2022
The Domaine des Ardoisières is located in Savoie on the Coteaux de Cevins and Saint-Pierre-de-Soucy . The estate was founded in 1997 following the project to replant the fallow vineyard of Denis Perroux , the mayor of the village. This project materialized in 1998 with the first planting of the local grape variety called Altesse and the first harvest took place in October 2002. A few months later, Denis Perroux met Brice Omont (a passionate biodynamic winemaker) and Michel Gisard (a Champagne agricultural engineer). Since 2008, they have been at the head of the Domaine des Ardoisières which now covers 16 hectares. The estate is run biodynamically .
Silice is made from Jacquère , the result of purchases of grapes carried out in organic farming by winegrowers neighboring the estate.
Grape variety: 100% Jacquère
