Chasselas "Swissness"
Chasselas is the staple grape of Switzerland. Nothing can quite compare to the subtle yet complex depth of the Chasselas grape. On the surface, it is an easy-drinking aperitif style wine designed to be enjoyed no matter the occasion. But peel back the layers, and you'll discover the depth and beauty of this native Alpine wine.
Nestled in the heat of the Vaud region of Switzerland, Cave de la Côte's Chasselas is famed for its fresh round body, effervescent bubble dancing on your tongue, and tantalizing lime blossom notes at the finish. This wine is the perfect aperitif for any occasion.
Bouquet: A floral nose of white peach and lime blossom with a nice minerality.
Palate: There is a wonderful crisp freshness upfront, followed by white fruits and pineapple notes, complimented by a light, effervescent, bubbly, and smooth acid.
Pairings: Aperitif wine is good for opening a bottle in the afternoon or as a pre-dinner wine. Pair it with light tapas, charcuterie boards, or melon with prosciutto.
