Intensity
Zippy and fresh, this sparkling Jacquère serves well both as an aperitif or to accompany seafood. An unusual find!
More infoThe Monfarina cuvée is produced using Jacquère, a grape variety native to the scree of Mont Granier, among marl and large limestone boulders. This cuvée is named after a traditional Piedmontese danse. We must bear in mind that the Savoie region was part of Italy for a lot longer than it has been French! Fresh and zippy, with notes of citrus fruits and green apple and a very low alcohol content (11°), lending a wine that is digestible and eminently drinkable! It pairs very well with fish, especially salmon and freshwater fish as well as sea food. Also serves very well as an aperitif wine, as it won’t tire the palate before a meal.

About the Producer Giachino
Established 20 years ago, Domaine Giachino has grown its grapes organically and produced organic wines for nearly 10 years. The vineyard lies on the slopes of Mont Garnier, on the outskirts of Chambéry in the communes of Chapareillan, Marches and Apremont. The grapes are picked by hand so that they can be kept in perfect condition until pressing. This also enables sorting of the bunches, with only the best being selected. As a result, the property does not need to use any additives or vinification products.
