Eugene Carrel, alongside his son Olivier and son-in-law Sebastian manage their Domaine in the village of Jongieux, the warmest appellation in Savoie on west-facing slopes near Lac du Bourget. The Marestel Altesse is considered the premier wine of the winery and Savoie as a whole, a white with the depth and weight of Chardonnay or Roussanne, but the bright appley fruit and zest of all Savoie wines. Planted at 1500 feet, Carrel’s vineyards get 2 or 3 more hours of sun than most other vineyards in Savoie, so the grapes develop more flavor compounds before harvest. Thus, in a scintillating, sunny 2019 vintage, this wine shows deep, powerful aromas of apple sauce, gardenia, vanilla crème brûlée, salt and white pepper. The palate is luxurious, creamy, silky, and filled with apple, baking spices and white strawberry. This is a white wine for pork dishes, cold nights, steelhead salmon, and fireside card games.
