Stéphane PorchetEpesses 2024

About this wine

This is a Chasselas from Lavaux, one of Switzerland's most celebrated wine regions. Stéphane Porchet crafts wines that capture the essence of these steep terraced vineyards overlooking Lake Geneva, and this Epesses is no exception.

The 2024 vintage shows the classic character of Chasselas: fresh, mineral, and incredibly approachable. You'll find delicate citrus notes and a subtle herbaceous touch that speaks to the limestone-rich soils of Lavaux. There's a wonderful lightness to it, with just enough structure to make it interesting without being heavy.

This is the kind of wine that works beautifully with Swiss lake fish, particularly perch or pike. Try it alongside a simple fondue, or pair it with fresh goat cheese and local vegetables. Serve it well chilled, around 8 to 10 degrees, and drink it young to enjoy all that freshness. It's the perfect companion for a casual lunch on a sunny day.
