Region:


Savoie

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.
