Wines and spirits Savoie

Wine reflects its creator as much as the land in which it was born. It is the faithful mirror of the winemaker's thoughts and the soul of the region. At first glance, Savoyard wine seems austere, less open, imbued with mystery. Like its inhabitants, it reveals a wild, rustic and robust character. Behind a seemingly cold welcome lies a warm heart, true to the image of the Savoyard and his wine. Wine lovers, dare to take the plunge into this estate like no other!
