"The refinement of Savoie"
"Raised in concrete eggs, terracotta jars, and oak barrels, this Chignin Bergeron, made from 50-year-old Roussanne grapes, is remarkably refined and harmonious, with aromas of vine peach, apricot, and white pepper, supported by beautiful bitter notes on the finish. " (Le Guide Hachette 2023). In the 15th century, the Dukes of Savoy shared the steepest slopes to cultivate the best local grape varieties. In Chignin, Bergeron has its favorite terroir: the Torméry hillside, renowned for the quality of its wines.
