Wine Description:
Domaine des Ardoisieres Quartz is a highly sought-after wine produced by Domaine des Ardoisieres, a renowned winery located in the Savoie region of France. The wine is made from grapes grown in the steep, terraced vineyards of the Coteau de Cevins, which are situated at an altitude. The vineyards are characterized by their unique soil composition, which is rich in quartz and slate, and the cool, alpine climate that produces grapes with exceptional freshness and acidity. The winemaking process is meticulous, with a focus on natural fermentation and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the terroir, with notes of citrus, white flowers, and minerality. Pros:
- Domaine des Ardoisieres Quartz is a crisp, refreshing white wine with aromas of green apple, white flowers, and citrus. Its light body and zesty acidity make it an excellent aperitif and a great accompaniment to light seafood dishes
Cons:
- There is a slight bitterness that some may find off-putting, and the wine lacks complexity, making it best suited for casual meals and not as suitable for more formal occasions
Wine Expert Note:
This Domaine des Ardoisieres Quartz is a full-bodied and complex white wine, boasting a delightful bouquet of apricot and yellow apple, punctuated by a hint of citrus, and further subtle notes of honey and white flowers. On the palate, the wine has a creamy texture, and a balanced structure, with refreshing acidity, and an utterly delightful finish. A beautiful wine that is sure to please.Taste Flavor
