This class is perfect for adventurous drinkers, Francophiles, and anyone looking to fall in love with their next favorite underdog region
Tucked in the French Alps near the Swiss border, Savoie is one of France’s most overlooked — and most exciting — wine regions. In this class, we’ll explore the crisp whites, refreshing reds, and distinctive local varieties that thrive in this cool, mountainous terrain. Expect lively acidity, unexpected complexity, and a whole new appreciation for grapes you’ve (probably) never heard of.
We’ll taste 5 wines that highlight the region’s diversity — from Jacquère and Altesse to Mondeuse and beyond — while breaking down the key styles, subregions, and producers that make Savoie worth knowing.
