Marie Thérèse Chappaz - Grain by Grain - Petite Arvine 2016

Marie-Thérèse Chappaz, emblematic winegrower ...

One thing is certain: Marie-Thérèse Chappaz, emblematic Valais winegrower in Fully, Switzerland, is not prone to vertigo. And that's good. Because to preserve and cultivate the small vineyard terraces with vertiginous slopes only accessible by a monorail, you have to have a strong heart. On a snowy and pale December day, while the monorail nacelle rises in the void, jumping along the hillside, from 450 to 600 m above sea level, Marie-Thérèse Chappaz, sparkling blue eyes, blond braid and cheeks rosies by the biting cold, proudly presents its heritage and its stronghold. In 2008, it celebrated its twentieth vintage. A graduate of the Swiss oenology school in Changins, where she worked for six years, she patiently reconstituted, plot after plot, the fragmented vineyard of her great-uncle.

The Liaudisaz cellar has 8.5 ha of very fragmented vines, 5.5 of which are on this famous hill overlooking the upper Rhône valley. The place, sheltered from the wind, is protected by the alpine chains: opposite, spread out the massifs of Grand-Saint-Bernard and Aiguilles Rouges de Chamonix; to the left, in the background, looms the famous Bietschhorn. Fully enjoys an almost southern climate, with strong sunshine. The oldest vines, beautiful gnarled vines, roll up towards the sky, depending on the size of the Valais "corkscrew".

Tasting Notes: Bright, clear golden. Variation of citrus fruits on the nose: orange, tangerine, candied lemon and citron. Slender, sweet, crystalline palate. A great body all in balance, in harmony and which ends with very beautiful mineral bitterness. To savor for itself, as a wine for conversation, even for meditation!
