Winemakers: Marie & Florian Curtet
- Woman winemaker and co-owner - Marie Curtet, with her husband Florian
- A lovely young hippie couple took over the certified biodynamic vineyards from Savoie legend Jacques Maillet after a long apprenticeship, continuing in his spirit
- Florian and Marie are 100% focused on biodiversity, even planting trees in the middle of the vineyards!
- Local Savoie grape Jacquere is like the more grown-up, elegant big sis to the Melon de Bourgogne of Muscadet - high acid, stony minerality, wants oysters
- Bottle age is a gift here, softening the laser-sharp acidity and rounding the edges, allowing pretty stone fruits to shine
- Citrus, apples, chamomile, bee pollen - Spring in a glass!
