2017 Valle d’Aosta Bianco “Petite Arvine”
Château FeuilletI escape to the mountains any chance I get. Breathing in the crisp mountain air and touching the cool granite rocks revitalizes my spirit and helps me to center my mind. All my attempts to bottle that air for enjoyment during a busy week have proved futile—until now. The wines of Château Feuillet are made in the dramatic mountain landscape of the Valle d’Aosta in northwestern Italy. Tucked away in a glacial valley much like Yosemite, the vineyards of Château Feuillet produce an invigorating white wine that quenches my thirst for the mountains.

Fumin truly is, as Feuillet’s vigneron Maurizio Fiorano puts it, “an age-old pearl of local enology.”

Italy | Valle d’Aosta
True to the region, it has exuberant, piquant fruit, both peppery and floral throughout.
2022 Valle d’Aosta Traminer Aromatico
Italy | Valle d’Aosta
This Traminer Aromatico pays lovely homage to its French cousin, Alsatian Gewurztraminer, but with a Valdostano interpretation.

The nose is floral, but these are surely mountain wildflowers, and the palate is perfectly crisp and quenching.

6-Bottle Sampler Italy | Valle d’Aosta
Sampler Includes:
2022 Valle d’Aosta Moscato Bianco $35
Raised in stainless steel, Moscato produces aromas that are fiercely locked into this bottling. Honeyed, yet bone-dry, it has a hint of chestnut and would be as charming for an apéritif as with a cheese or dessert course.
2022 Valle d’Aosta Traminer Aromatico $35
Expressive and pedigreed Feuillet’s Traminer might be the white Burgundy equivalent of the bunch. It spends some time on its lees, giving it a rounder mouthfeel. Pair it with fattier fish or slices of salty speck.
2022 Valle d’Aosta Petite Arvine $37
A grape of Swiss origin, Petite Arvine is a versatile white, persistent in length with a mouthwatering and crystalline minerality. It soaks up the sun but maintains a flinty edge.
2021 Valle d’Aosta Rosso Torrette Superieur $37
A bright and plummy wine with a velvety texture, made from the native Petit Rouge variety. Serve this beauty with bolder fare in need of a refreshing companion.
2022 Valle d’Aosta Rosso Cornalin $38
A spicy, smoky red with rustic undertones, Cornalin has pretty black fruit and is a great match for well-seasoned sausages and other charred meats.
2021 Valle d’Aosta Rosso Fumin $43
A robust and pleasantly tannic rosso, Fumin has a floral quality with a bit of a bite—similar to peppery Syrahs of the northern Rhône.
