Ripe apples, grapefruit, lemongrass. Nice richness to palate, especially mid-palate, great acid, good length. Could be a good crossover wine for Sauv Blanc and Chard drinkers.

Aug 4th, 2017The 2011 is getting a bit tired at this point (needed more acid to keep going), but still a great wine. Altesse doesn't disappoint -fuller and rounder than its Savoie cousin Jacquere, but retaining that lively alpine purity.
