Villeneuve

Growers build the wines around Chasselas, filling out the blend with Pinot Noir, Gamay, Merlot and Gamaret, plus four more.

The climate is maritime/oceanic.

The vineyards themselves read as lakeside and slopes.

White wine and red wine is what the region is known for, and in the glass it shows light and crisp and vibrant and fruit-forward.

Labels here fall under the Premier Grand Cru.

At the table these bottles work with seafood, poultry, light pasta dishes and salads.
