This Jacquère grown on Savoie’s limestone mountainsides may be the crispest beverage to ever grace your palate.

Few things are more satisfying as an apéritif than a chilled glass of this Alpine elixir made from 70-year-old vines.

A wonderfully dry, fresh, sparkling wine from one of the most beautiful regions of France.

This red conveys loads of juicy, brambly berries with floral and gamey nuances.

Travel no further than Chignin, where the Quenard family bottles a Roussanne (dubbed Bergeron in these parts) that will exceed your wildest expectations.

April Club Gourmand ~ Grown on near-vertical limestone scree slopes, Bergeron reaches incredible heights here, yielding a blanc full of character and flavors of peach, tangerine, and pine resin.

It has often been likened to a cross between Pinot Noir and Syrah: bright, elegant, and floral, with suggestions of wild fruit, blood, and minerals.

If any Pinot Noir on these pages is built for the Parisian bistro or Lyonnais bouchon, it is this one from the hills of Chignin, in Savoie.

Lychee and ripe citrus wrapped in beeswax. You might think there are a bunch of busy benevolent bees whiling away inside your glass.

This medium-bodied white evokes peaches, honey, and pine resin. Perfect for winter nights and dishes like hearty, Savoie-inspired fish chowder.
