This wine combines notes of sea spray and freshly milled grain with the more familiar grasses and flowers associated with Jacquere-based wines of this alpine region. While not displaying significant orchard or citrus fruit ripeness, this delicate wine remains delightfully refreshing and engaging through to a lip-snacking finish tinged with invigorating salt and white pepper.

About this wine
Jean-Francois Quénard - Chignin Bergeron - Comme Avant
Indulge in the rich and complex flavours of Jean-Francois Quénard's Chignin Bergeron - Comme Avant. This exquisite white wine is made from the rare Roussanne grape variety, grown in the Chignin region of the French Alps.
With its golden hue and aromas of honey, apricot and white flowers, this wine is a true delight for the senses. On the palate, it is full-bodied and rich, with flavours of ripe stone fruit, toasted nuts and a hint of minerality. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a pleasant aftertaste that lingers on the tongue.
The Quénard family has been producing wine in the Chignin region for over 300 years, and their expertise is evident in every sip of this exceptional wine. The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected, then fermented and aged in oak barrels for 12 months to achieve the perfect balance of flavours and aromas.
Enjoy Jean-Francois Quénard's Chignin Bergeron - Comme Avant with rich and flavourful dishes such as roasted chicken, grilled fish or creamy pasta. It also pairs well with soft cheeses and charcuterie. Serve chilled at around 10-12°C to fully appreciate its complexity and depth.
