Savoie
Savoie, France, is celebrated for its fresh and alpine-inspired wines, particularly white varietals like Jacquère, Altesse, and Roussanne, as well as light, elegant reds from Mondeuse and Gamay. Located in the foothills of the Alps, Savoie’s vineyards benefit from a cool continental climate with significant diurnal temperature variation, ensuring vibrant acidity and delicate aromatics. The region’s diverse soils, including limestone scree, glacial deposits, and alluvial plains, reflect its mountainous origins and contribute to the wines’ distinct minerality.
