2024 Archer Summertime Blanc
A dry white wine from Chignin-Bergeron crafted from Roussanne, a solar grape variety that produces round and generous wines. This cuvée showcases the magnificent expression of Roussanne on Chignin's distinctive terroir, characterized by warm stone minerality. The wine demonstrates a particularly just balance between ample, rich texture and fine alpine freshness that brings precision and length. The style is emblematic of Chignin-Bergeron: solar and generous yet held by the characteristic alpine acidity of the region, creating a vibrant, mineral-driven white of pure elegance.
