Profile & Story

Denis & Didier Berthollier are 5th-generation growers on an 11-hectare estate in Chignin, Savoie, farmed organically and biodynamically (Demeter-certified) since 1850. Argile sur Schiste is 100% Jacquere, the signature grape of the Chignin appellation, grown on the clay-over-schist soils the cuvee is named for; vinified without added sulfur (a small amount only at bottling) with extended aging in vat, barrel or amphora.

Tasting Notes

Fruity, sometimes exotic notes balanced by the fine minerality typical of this estate's plots.

Pairing Recommendation

Pairs well with alpine cheeses and light fish preparations.
