"Princess Roussette!"

Whether you choose to call it Roussette or Altesse, this white grape variety—native to Savoie and used to make the wines of the Roussette de Savoie AOP—will charm you with its unique aromas of fresh pear, honey, and white flowers. On the palate, this cuvée is soft and smooth, with a delightfully fresh finish.
