Place: Savoie, France
Variety: Malvoisie
Farming: Organic
Cellier de la Baraterie is the small organic estate of Julien Viana, based in Cruet at the foot of the Bauges mountains in Savoie. Working with native alpine varieties and a light touch in the cellar, Julien produces pure, energetic wines that capture the freshness and mineral character of the region.
Malvoisie comes from southeast-facing vines rooted in black marl and clay-limestone soils. Ripe pear and yellow apple are layered with citrus, gentle florals and a distinctive smoky mineral note. Fine lees bring softness and texture to the palate, balanced by alpine freshness and a long, saline finish.
