Chasselas, also known as "Gutedel," is an ancient, almost forgotten variety. Originating in Switzerland, this majestic variety is often eaten as a table grape.
Our parcel of Chasselas is located on the magmatic gneiss soils of Kayserberg in the "Tiergarden" lieu-dit ("garden of animals").
Sight: Clear yellow with green tinges. With age, this wine develops a golden yellow color.
Nose: An intensely floral bouquet with touches of hawthorn, citrus fruits and a flinty minerality.
Taste: Supple and subtle. Deliciously fresh and fruity.
