Giac'Potes Gamay/Mondeuse Domaine Giachino 2017, biodynamic wine, Gamay, Mondeuse blend, new wine, light, soft, textured. In 2017 Domaine Giachino didn't produce a lot of Gamay due to some difficult weather conditions during the year but the fruit which was produced was great quality. In order to get a few more bottles made, they blended in a little Mondeuse, the local grape which has a touch more body and colour. The resulting wine is still fresh, youthful and textured but a little richness and colour. A delightful glass of natural red wine from the mountains.
Domaine Giachino was created in 1998 when Frédéric took over the 1,5 hectares family estate from his grandfather Marius Genton. Later joined by his brother David, they progressively enlarged the estate to 9 hectares and enriched their vineyards with new grape varieties particular to their area of the Savoie. Their values and philosophy made a switch to natural and organic methods inevitable and this they did in 2006. The vineyards of Domaine Giachino are in Savoie, not far from Chambéry, on the hillsides of Mont Granier. The soils are moraine, clay and limestone; a specific geology to the area and source of the uniqueness of their delicious organic wines.
