What is white wine?
Regardless of their profile, all our white wines are natural and organic wines, with no added sulfites.
White wine is most often made from white grapes, but some black grape varieties can also be used. This is then called "blanc de noirs."
The main French grape varieties for white wine are Chardonnay, Sauvignon, Chenin, Viognier, Melon de Bourgogne, Sémillon, Muscat, Riesling, etc. There are more well-known protected designation of origin (AOC/AOP) for white wines (Loire, Jurançon, Entre-Deux-Mers, Fiefs-Vendéens, Muscadet…), but many appellations are also famous, sometimes more famous, for their white wines than for their red wines: this is the case, for example, for Alsace and Burgundy.
A dry white wine can be made from direct pressing (grapes pressed immediately after harvest) or vinified with maceration of destemmed or whole-cluster grapes. In this case, it is called a macerated white wine or orange wine.
Sweet or dessert wines are wines with a sweet profile because they retain a high level of residual sugar after fermentation. These wines should not be confused with VDN (vins doux naturels) or fortified wines, which can be white, and which are obtained from grape must whose fermentation has been interrupted by the addition of alcohol.
A dry white wine, depending on the ripeness of the grapes, the terroir, the grape varieties, and the winemaking process, has a taste profile ranging from very dry (acidic) to fruity and sweet. One can feel the mark of the soil (acidity, salinity, minerality) or that of the fruit (sweetness, fruity or floral aromatic palette), sometimes both. Aging and cellaring time can also influence the sweetness, acidity, or aromatic intensity of a white wine.
White wines are made almost everywhere in temperate climates. In Europe, some white wines from Italy and Spain are renowned. In France, Burgundy, the Loire Valley, Savoy, Alsace, Languedoc, and Gascony can be cited as major origins of white wine.
Regarding pairings, white wines are most often associated with fish, seafood, and cheeses, as well as cheese-based dishes such as Swiss or Savoyard fondue. They are also reserved for white meats and light appetizers, as well as some desserts.
What are the different types of white wines?
The large family of white wines includes dry white wines (the most common category), which include oxidative white wines and macerated white wines (orange wines). There are also sweet white wines, dessert white wines, sparkling white wines (or pétillant), and fortified white wines (white vins doux naturels).
Why choose an organic white wine with no added sulfites?
For health, first of all. Many people claim not to tolerate white wines because they give them headaches. This symptom is most often due to the addition of sulfites, not to mention other chemical additives in conventional winemaking.
Indeed, conventional winemaking tends to add more sulfites to white wines than to red wines because they are more fragile and more difficult to preserve, but in the presence of natural white wines without added sulfites, this problem disappears.
An organic white wine with no added sulfites is therefore healthier and more digestible. It also tastes better, allowing its aromas and fruit more room to express themselves.
A good natural white wine offers a freer and livelier sensation on the palate. These wines are fresher, fuller, and more pleasant to taste.
What is the distinction between a sweet white wine and a dry white wine?
The dry-sweet-dessert scale is a matter of residual sugar, the amount of natural grape sugars that the wine retains after fermentation.
A dry white wine will contain less than 10 g of residual sugar, a sweet white wine between 10 and 45 g, and a dessert wine will contain more than 45 g per liter.
Which exceptional dishes pair best with white wine?
If we generally consider that white wines are to be paired with fish and seafood, white meats, poultry, and cheeses, the pairings depend heavily on the types of wines.
For exceptional dishes, an exceptional white wine.
For example, oysters and smoked salmon will be paired with dry white wines from Burgundy or the Loire estuary (Muscadet), fine fish (turbot, sole, sea bass) with crisp and aromatic white wines from Burgundy, the Loire Valley, Savoy, and the South.
Loire white wines will go with goat cheeses, and Savoy or Jura white wines with rich cheeses such as Reblochon, Comté, or Mont d'Or.
With age, the range of pairings for great dry or dessert white wines expands and includes stews, poultry, and feathered game. Sometimes, an old Burgundy or an old sweet Jurançon develops truffle aromas: the pairing is then obvious.

Vinification
Sourced from a schistose micro-plot in the Albertville vineyard, the La Tour Sarazine harvest ferments using carbonic maceration for fifteen days. After pressing, it is aged for one year in tuns and barrels. Unfiltered, unfined, no added sulfites.
Tasting
Jean-Yves Péron's Tour Sarazine has a very muscat profile – musky, floral, aromatic, exotic – reinforced by the mineral clarity of Savoyard schist. For pairings, it's a call to the imagination, between cheeses and cuisines from elsewhere: for the former, we recommend them creamy, and for the latter, don't hesitate to delve into Asian repertoires.
Learn more about Jean-Yves Péron
Jean-Yves Péron is a talented embodiment of the organic, biodynamic and natural renaissance of the Savoyard vineyard, which is based on varied soils and numerous indigenous grape varieties (Jacquère, Altesse, Mondeuse, etc.). At his Chevaline winery in the Bauges region, he vinifies grapes from his plots in Conflans, near Albertville, and Fréterive, in the Isère valley.
High-altitude biodynamics
Jean-Yves Péron's work follows the principles of minimal intervention. On narrow, steep slopes, his hand-worked mountain vines in micro-plots receive no synthetic products, Jean-Yves preferring horsetail and nettle manure. All of Jean-Yves Péron's wines are sulfite-free, made from hand-harvested grapes, vinified in whole bunches and foot-trodden in the vat. For all vintages, the free-run and press are blended, then aged on lees for at least one year, in two- or three-wine barrels, amphorae or tuns, before final blending. They must be stored at a temperature below 18°C. No sulfites are added, or as little as possible, and the wines are not fined or filtered.
Italo-Savoyard trade
Since 2011, a trading activity has allowed Jean-Yves Péron to buy the harvest from neighboring organic winegrowers and to collaborate with winegrowers from Northern Italy: this is the I Vicini series, which allows him to diversify the terroirs and deepen his experiences in winemaking and aging.
Pierra Menta White 2022
Pierra Menta is an exceptional organic, biodynamic, and natural dry white wine from Savoie made by Jean-Yves Péron. Classified as a Vin de France, Pierra Menta is made from the Gringet grape variety. The winemaker plans to plant more vines of this ancient variety until he reaches half a hectare.
Vinification
Gringet, which makes up 100% of Pierra Menta, is a white grape variety native to Haute-Savoie, historically linked to the commune of Ayse, near Bonneville. Jean-Yves Péron's vines are planted near Albertville, on a south-facing mica-schist plot. Gringet has long been confined to the Bonneville region and traditionally produces low-proof, high-yield sparkling wines. It is an interesting, fruity, low-alcohol grape variety with notes of quince and strong minerality. Pierra Menta's gringets are macerated for two weeks in carbonic acid, then punched down for two months, and aged for one year in 300-liter barrels.
Tasting
The quince is evident from the initial olfactory and taste, and the minerality supports this note. White fruits, florality, plenty of structure, and a nice acidity. An incredible length, too... We thank Jean-Yves for this and move on to the food and wine pairings: fish, seafood, oysters and Middle Eastern cuisine.

The Jacquère vines grow on clay-limestone soil, in the place called Les Marches, at the foot of Mont Granier. La Petite Robe comes from roughly the same terroir as Les Œillets, but this vintage is harvested earlier. Carbonic maceration lasts two weeks. The wine is aged for one year in 15-hectoliter tuns and barrels.
Tasting
The Petite Robe, wonderfully sweet and crisp, is yet another great success from Jean-Yves Péron. There are actually two Petites Robes: the wine will be very different depending on whether it is in magnum or bottle. Jean-Yves likes to talk about this as an exercise in style. Here, in 75 cl, the Jacquère gives its opulent, gourmet, fruity, fleshy side, with volume on the palate. The Petite Robe offers notes of charcoal, white fruits, a beautiful balance and great intensity, combined with a note of controlled oxidation. This wine is ideal with smoked, raw, or cooked seafood.

Jean-Yves Péron is a talented embodiment of the organic, biodynamic, and natural renaissance of the Savoyard vineyard, which is based on varied soils and numerous indigenous grape varieties (Jacquère, Altesse, Mondeuse, etc.). At his Chevaline winery in the Bauges region, he vinifies grapes from his plots in Conflans, near Albertville, and Fréterive, in the Isère Valley.
High-altitude biodynamics
Jean-Yves Péron's work follows the principles of minimal intervention. On narrow, steep surfaces, his mountain vines in micro-plots, worked by hand, receive no synthetic products, Jean-Yves preferring horsetail and nettle manure. All of Jean-Yves Péron's wines are sulfite-free, made from hand-harvested grapes, vinified in whole bunches and foot-trodden in the vat. For all vintages, the free-run and press are blended, then aged on lees for at least one year, in two- or three-wine barrels, amphorae or tuns, before final blending. They must be stored at a temperature below 18°C. No sulfites are added, or as little as possible, and the wines are not fined or filtered.
Italian-Savoyard trade
Since 2011, a trading activity has allowed Jean-Yves Péron to buy the harvest from neighboring organic winegrowers and to collaborate with winegrowers in Northern Italy: this is the I Vicini series, which allows him to diversify the terroirs and deepen his winemaking and aging experiences.
Les Œillets Amphore White 2022
Les Œillets Amphore is a dry macerated white wine produced in Savoie by Jean-Yves Péron. Organic, biodynamic, and natural, it is a 100% Jacquère white, with no additives or added sulfites, classified as a Vin de France.
Vinification
Les Œillets comes from the same terroir as La Petite Robe (the clay-limestone soils of the lieu-dit Les Marches, at the foot of Mont Granier), but it is harvested later to achieve greater phenolic maturity and a higher tannin concentration. Carbonic maceration for four or five days is followed by a month of punching down in vats. At least one year of aging in terracotta amphorae.
Tasting
With a beautiful minerality and a tension polished by the time spent in terracotta, Les Œillets Amphore by Jean-Yves Péron is an atypical white, with powerful aromatic notes without any trace of wood. Lots of fruit and candied citrus. Les Œillets has chewiness, texture, a tannic mouthfeel and a note of controlled oxidation. The tension is strong, balanced by a note of apricot. You will pair him with all your best dishes.
