• Aperitif Vines

    The aperitifs are over for this year! Thank you for coming so many and many to (re)discover the vineyards of the Heart of Savoie. See you next summer for an eleventh edition!

    In the meantime, come and enjoy the many activities during the Fascinant Weekend!

    What are aperitif vines?

     

    These are privileged moments in the evenings with a winemaker. A unique opportunity to be able to visit the estates, discuss and discover the secrets of the grape varieties before sharing a convivial moment around a tasting! The specificity of the soils and the winemaking techniques will have no more secrets for you. 

    Did you know that Savoie is one of the smallest AOP vineyards in France? But it brings together more than 10% of French grape varieties, some of which are exclusive (Mondeuse and Mondeuse Blanche, Jacquère, Altesse, Persan, Gringet, or even La Molette). 

    In summer, every Thursday evening from July 6 to August 24, 2023, winegrowers with the Vignobles & Découvertes label welcome you from 18:30 p.m. to 20:30 p.m. in their domain, to help you discover their best cuvées in their own way. The tasting is accompanied by local products. Of course, families are welcome for a tasting of unfermented grape juice. 

    The organization of aperitifs on demand for groups is possible throughout the year. The team of the tourist office is at your disposal to organize this experience with you.
