Tasting Notes: The Ermes Pavese Blanc De Morgex et de la Salle is a benchmark for Alpine white wines and the Prie Blanc variety. Orchard fruit, apple, pear and hints of straw and lemon flavors mark this juicy white, which features a chalky finish, some grip and a robust and refreshing minerality.

Estate History: Starting with barely two hectares of vineyards, situated at about 1200 meters above sea level, Ermes Pavese has gradually expanded his holdings in this high-altitude zone. In the commune of La Ruine just outside of the town of Morgex in the high Alps minutes from the summit of Mont Blanc, Pavese works the native grape known as Prié Blanc. Because these vineyards are so isolated, Pavese has been able to work with the original, pre-phylloxera root stock since that malady never infiltrated this area when it came sweeping through Europe many years ago.
