The wine

This red Savoie wine comes from Domaine Jean-Yves Péron. It is a single-varietal Mondeuse cuvée, a native grape typical of the region. The vines – between 30 and 120 years old – grow across 2 hectares of sloping land, at 400-600 metres of altitude. No synthetic products are used in the vineyard, and the soils are worked with pickaxes and winches.
This wine maker intervenes very little in the winery. After harvesting the grapes by hand, the red grapes are vatted in whole bunches for fermenting. Maturation lasts 12 months in old casks that confer a subtle oakiness.
The Levat cuvée gives off intense aromas of fruit and gentle spices. It is fresh and dense on the palate. Its fine tannins and persistent finish promise a long life.

Information about domain Jean-Yves Péron

Jean-Yves Péron is a trained enologist who created his own domain in January 2004. He began by buying micro-parcels in Conflans, a medieval site in Albertville. Nowadays, his indigenous grape varieties (Mondeuse for the red wines and Jacquère for the whites) grow on two hectares of hillsides (between 400 and 600 metres of altitude). In addition to these, he also grows other varieties such as Persan, Altesse and local Roussanne. The vines are between 30 and 120 years old. He uses neither fertilizer nor any synthetic weedkillers, opting instead for natural treatments (nettle for example) and tilling the soil. His work in the winery is remarkably non-interventionist, or ‘natural' even; after manual harvests, the grapes undergo carbonic maceration and are punched down once or twice a day in order to extract a good dose of colour. Some of his wines have no sulfites added to them.
