Charlotte Sonjon, Complices 2023
Place: Savoie, France
Grape: Jacquère + Altesse
Vibe: Fresh
Savoie whites are now firm favourites on my drinking list, and here's another great one. Pleasantly medicinal herbs are the first thing that hit you, and sharp lemon flavours are right behind it. There's a cool floral note of dandelion in there as well, and as with most things (or most good things) Savoie this is so fresh you can practically taste the mountain air. Having seen the vineyards, I can now confirm, this botte is a one way ticket to the alps. ABV: 11.5%
