Cave Mont Blanc de Morgex et la Salle

Faint greenish yellow. Tropical fruit, citrus and red fruits, slightly mineral. Fresh and savory, slightly soft and round.

The Priè grape variety is the oldest in the Aosta Valley and is mentioned as early as 1691 in a document. The name is thought to derive from the French "prier," to pray, referring to the fact that the wine was used by priests during Sunday mass. Genetic analysis has shown that Priè is the parent of several Valdostan grapes, including Roussin de Morgex, Primetta and Mayolet. Priè is one of the few grape varieties that can survive the extreme climatic conditions of the upper Aosta Valley.

Golden yellow. Peach, apricot, honey, flowers with mineral notes. Sweet and slightly savory.

Chaudelune is the result of combining two production philosophies. One is the Germanic "ice," where grapes are harvested frozen in winter, and fermented in barrels of different sizes made from oak and local woods. The other is the Latin one of oxidation. The wine matures in drained barrels in which regular bâtonnage takes place.
