Maison des Ardoisières, Silice Blanc, 2023 (Savoie, France)
From high-altitude slate terraces in Savoie comes this electric, mineral-charged white by Brice Omont. With aromas of white flowers and lemon zest, a touch of silky texture ('gras') and a zingy, quinine-laced finish, this is mountain purity in a glass. Naturally made, organically farmed, and seriously good value. This is Alpine refreshment at its finest.
