Description
The Valle dAosta is a deep valley that runs east to west, closed off just before the French border by some of the highest peaks in the Alps. Vineyards here are like little gardens clinging to steep south-facing mountainsides, where only a thin layer of sandy topsoil lines the hard granite bedrock. Abundant direct sun and cold nights amplify the aromatic expression of the local grapes while preserving zingy acidity, a recipe for delicate, perfumed wines that dance energetically across the palate. Sipping Feuillets Petite Arvine evokes the euphoria of running through a field of Alpine wildflowersadmittedly a clich, until you feel the exacting mineral purity of this floralbiancowash over your senses.
