Domaine Croix DuplexCalamin Grand Cru 2024

About this wine

This Calamin Grand Cru from Domaine Croix Duplex is one of Switzerland's most prestigious white wines, crafted from Chasselas vines grown on steep terraces overlooking Lake Geneva. It's a wine that captures the essence of its unique terroir, where limestone-rich soils and optimal sun exposure create something truly special.

In the glass, expect a beautiful mineral backbone with notes of white flowers, citrus zest, and subtle hints of flint. The palate is elegant and precise, with a refreshing acidity that carries through to a long, saline finish. There's a lovely tension between the wine's delicate fruit and its pronounced minerality that makes each sip compelling.

Serve this Grand Cru slightly chilled at around 10-12°C to fully appreciate its finesse. It's a perfect match for local Swiss specialties like perch fillets from Lake Geneva, fondue, or raclette. The wine's mineral character also pairs beautifully with oysters, grilled fish, or simply enjoyed on its own as an aperitif to celebrate a special moment.
