Chasselas "Swissness"

Chasselas is the staple grape of Switzerland. Nothing can quite compare to the subtle yet complex depth of the Chasselas grape. On the surface, it is an easy-drinking, aperitif-style wine meant to be enjoyed on any occasion. But peel back the layers, and you'll discover the depth and beauty of this native Alpine wine.  

Nestled in the heat of the Vaud region of Switzerland, Cave de la Côte's Chasselas is famed for its fresh, round body, effervescent bubbles dancing on your tongue, and tantalizing lime blossom notes at the finish. This wine is the perfect aperitif for any occasion. 

Bouquet: A floral nose of white peach and lime blossom with a nice minerality.

Palate: A wonderful crisp freshness comes through upfront, followed by white fruit and pineapple notes, complemented by light, effervescent, smooth, bubbly acidity. 

Pairings: This aperitif wine is great for opening in the afternoon or as a pre-dinner drink. Pair it with light tapas, charcuterie boards, or melon with prosciutto.
