Roussanne Goes under name Bergeron in Savoie, Altesse has a smaller Footprint in Region

Roussanne goes under name Bergeron in Savoie, Altesse has a smaller Footprint in the Region.

Most commonly planted white varietal in Savoie is Jacquere.

I realized when I learned of Vins de Savoie tasting in New York City on November 9 with a dozen of Savoyards winemakers present that I knew next to nothing about region's wines.

Only wine from Savoie I ever mentioned is Domaine Les Cantates from Chignin

I will try to make up for t.

I started by reading Savoie Wines escape from the ski slopes on Savoie-Mont Blanc site.
