Fabien Trosset IGP Allobroges Petite Arvine 2024

Petite Arvine is one of the Alps' most demanding white grapes — it needs serious sun exposure to ripen at all, which is why it is barely planted outside a handful of high-altitude sites — and Trosset takes it on here with the same total restraint he brings to everything: native yeasts, concrete and steel, no wood. Fabien and his partner Chloe farm steep terraces carved into ancient glacial moraine above Arbin, working by hand on foot and keeping yields low enough to concentrate the elemental, scree-soil character of the site. What comes out is a white with mouthwatering acidity, real mineral drive and a slight phenolic grip on the end that gives it structure most alpine whites do not have. That grip is why it belongs at the dinner table rather than on the porch.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Grilled whole fish with herbs, chicken in cream and morels, or raclette and charcuterie. The phenolic grip also handles pork loin and roasted root vegetables.

Tasting Profile

Yellow plum, grapefruit zest, crushed gravel and wild mountain herbs. Dry and medium-bodied, with vivid acidity and a subtle textural grip on the back palate. Long, mineral-driven finish.
