GROWER PROFILE & SHORT HISTORY
Bruno Lupin is a winemaker with extensive experience. Before moving back to his hometown
to establish his own estate, he ran the cellar at La Cave de Genève in Switzerland for many
years. The Lupin estate consists of five hectares of vines in Haute-Savoie on a hillside called
Les Aricoques. Bruno considers this location the best in the region due to the full southern
exposure and the relatively low altitude that protects the vineyards from the cold northern
winds.
TERROIRS
The soils here are argillaceous limestone and glacial moraines and the exposure of the vines
is south facing.
TASTING NOTE
The flavours are reminiscent of pear, gingerbread, spice and honey with a touch of nougat
and the mouthfeel is soft, mellow and off dry. This would be splendid with river fish such as
pike or perch, or veal escalope, or even the local Beaufort cheese.
