2023 André et Miche Quenard, Rousanne, "Les Roches Blanches," Chignin-Bergeron, Savoie - 750ML

André & Michel Quenard’s “Les Roches Blanches” is a classic Savoie expression of Chignin-Bergeron, the local name for Roussanne grown on the limestone-rich Alpine slopes around Chignin. The 2023 bottling emphasizes the variety’s generous stone-fruit profile while retaining the freshness and mineral edge that define the region. Retailer and importer notes describe the wine around apricot, orange peel, peach, honey, pine resin, and a silky medium-bodied palate.

Blend: 100% Roussanne.
Tasting Notes: Aromas of ripe apricot, white peach, orange peel, and alpine flowers unfold with subtle notes of honey, pine resin, and crushed stone. The palate is rounded and silky, carrying generous orchard and stone-fruit flavors through a fresh, mineral-accented finish.
Structure: Medium-bodied, aromatic, textural, and mineral-driven.
Drink Window: 2025–2029.

Decanting: No formal decanting required. Serve well chilled at first, then allow the wine to gently warm in the glass to bring out its honeyed, floral, and resinous complexity.

Graceful yet quietly distinctive, this Chignin-Bergeron is a refined choice for richer seafood, alpine cheeses, roast poultry, and cream-based dishes. Textural, aromatic, and beautifully fresh, it offers the pleasure of a classic Alpine white with enough elegance for a special dinner and enough charm for effortless enjoyment.
