Description

Savoie is a picture of fairy-tale perfection. The snow-capped peaks, green rolling hills, wildflowers, and cold, sparkling mountain streams. This idyllic region hugs the western Alps, perfect for Alpine white wine. Home to  Michel Quenard and his family farm, twenty-two hectares of vineyards. All along the steep, rocky slopes of the Coteau de Torméry around Chignin. The limestone that makes up this vineyard land, resulting from millions of years of erosion of the majestic peaks of the Massif des Bauges, lends excellent character to the wines produced here.
