Domaine de la Rosiére
Jongieux Vin de Savoie Mondeuse
Savoie, France
Made from jacquère, the colour of this wine is a very pale lemon-green, almost water-like in transparency. On the nose, I'm detecting pears, flowers, and a whiff of wet pavement. On the palate, I taste green apples, lemons, and a certain freshness that's hard to put into words.
Quite enjoyable and suitable for quaffing in spite of the high acidity, but shows best when chilled because there is a discernible amount of alcohol that can otherwise detract from the refreshing qualities of the wine.
