Abeymes

2014 Savoie Jacquere

Philippe & Sylvain Ravier Abeymes is a delightful white wine made from the unique Jacquere varietal, hailing from the picturesque Savoie region. This 2014 vintage showcases a medium-bodied profile, perfectly balancing vibrant acidity with a crisp mouthfeel that livens the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing enticing notes of green apple and pear, complemented by a refreshing minerality that is characteristic of this alpine area. The overall dryness allows the wine to express its fruit-forward quality while remaining food-friendly. This charming offering from Savoie is not only easy to drink but is also a testament to the region's winemaking prowess.

Nestled in the French Alps on its borders with Italy and Switzerland, the small region of Savoie may be off the beaten track, but offers many delights. Wine geeks will love discovering its obscure local varieties like Jacquère, Gringet and Altesse, which comprise most of the region's production. These crisp, delicately fragranced white wines have long been a favorite with summer hikers and winter skiers, but are now finding a wider international audience. Despite its altitude, Savoie enjoys a unique microclimate. Vineyards are generally south- and southeast-facing, giving them just the right amount of sunshine, with moderating influence from nearby lakes and rivers.
