As one travels up the Rhône Valley in Switzerland, the dense mineral texture of Chasselas in the Vaud gives way to a more ethereal expression, and by the time you reach the heart of the Valais at the cellars of Caves des Champs in Miège, it almost seems like an entirely different grape variety. Hallmarks of Claudy and his daughter Shadia’s wines are their purity, grace, and captivating aromatic profiles, so it should be no surprise that their Fendant is one of the finest and most elegant mineral expressions of Chasselas in all of Switzerland.
