Domaine des Ardoisieres Vin des Allobroges Rouge Cuvee Amethyste 2022

$10999

As the absolute pinnacle of Savoie red wine, this rare and majestic bottling is crafted from old vine Persan and Mondeuse clinging to vertical schist terraces. It is an enigmatic, deeply concentrated powerhouse that slowly reveals layers of dark bramble fruit, leather, iron minerality, and exotic spices. Serious structure meets velvet like tannins and a vibrant vein of acidity that promises spectacular aging potential, creating a bottle built for special occasions and slow sipping next to a prime cut of roasted ribeye.

More about Domaine des Ardoisieres

In the shadow of Mont Blanc, amongst some of the world’s most picturesque and rugged vineyards, you will find Domaine des Ardoisieres. Tucked in the corner of France that shares a border with both Italy and Switzerland, Savoie is a region totally distinct from any wine growing region in those three countries. The altitude is high, but the sun shines generously. The grapes there are found virtually nowhere else — varieties like Jacquere and Altesse are hardly household names, yet they are incredibly valuable to this unique region. And Domaine des Ardoisieres is one of the most compelling producer of Savoie wines. They have farmed their steeply terraced plots biodynamically for nearly 20 years, and their wines are designated by soil type.
