The vineyard is named for the enchanting Chateau de Chatillon, which overlooks Lac du Bourget, famously the largest and deepest freshwater lake in France. The castle dates back to the 3rd Century as a Roman fortress, with hidden Roman roads sprawling outwards from its peninsula perch. This is owned by Ed Peter, a Swiss wine lover, who also owns the iconic Yarra Yering winery. Ed has been taken with Savoie’s unparalleled beauty for many years, as well as the region’s coveted wines. Among others, one of the Chateau’s most eminent figures is Chevalier Alphonse Lamartine, who had heavy influence in the French political structure, as well as being a canonical figure in Romantic-era poetry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe Domaine de Chatillon is nestled in the French Alpine region of Savoie, an area that is known for its imposing Alpine mountains and picturesque freshwater lakes. The vineyards are traditionally small and scattered throughout the region as the mountainous terrain disrupts the landscape \u0026amp; production is less than 1% of all wine produced in France. Traditionally exposure to the wines was only for those visiting the ski fields \u0026amp; local towns and the wines were rarely seen outside of the region. Less than 1 hour’s drive south of Geneva is the beautiful Lac de Bourget which is where the vineyards of the Domaine are located on the northern headland within the village of Chautagne . \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eThe winemaking philosophy at Domaine de Chatillon is to guide the wines with a clear expression of their varietal identity and Alpine terroir. The white wines pressed to capture freshness \u0026amp; vivacity while the red wines are crushed to then see regular remontage to capture vibrant \u0026amp; buoyant colour’s and aromas. White \u0026amp; Rose wines are fermented at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks to maintain aromatic aromas \u0026amp; post fermentation the Jacquere is rested on fine lees to build texture \u0026amp; complexity. The red wines are fermented with wild yeast and post primary fermentation undergo malolactic fermentation.  All varietals are fermented and aged in concrete or stainless steel as the wines are made for immediate drinking pleasure with the use of oak eschewed for red wines to enhance vitality and freshness. All wines are VEGAN friendly with no animal products used in the fining or filtration process and added sulphur is only used in homeopathic measures.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"domaine-de-chatillon-jacquere-savoie-fr-2020","title":"Domaine de Chatillon Jacquère 2024","description":"\u003cp\u003eA true alpine white that captures the spirit of the French Savoie, bright, crisp and refreshingly pure.
