Les Frères DutruyEpesses Grand Cru Les Cheneaux 2023

About this wine

This is a wine that captures the essence of Lavaux in a single glass. Epesses Grand Cru Les Cheneaux is a benchmark Chasselas that shows you why this grape deserves respect on the world stage.

The 2023 vintage opens with delicate white flowers and a hint of citrus zest. You'll find a lovely mineral backbone that speaks to the terraced vineyards perched above Lake Geneva. The palate is fresh and elegant, with a subtle salinity that makes your mouth water and keeps you coming back for another sip.

This is the wine to serve with local lake fish, particularly perch fillets prepared simply with butter and herbs. It also pairs beautifully with Valais cheese or a light vegetable tart. Serve it well-chilled, around 8 to 10 degrees Celsius, in a regular white wine glass to let it breathe properly.
