White Wine from Switzerland : perfect for a fun fondue party
from Tune In to Wine with David Kohl : Bordeaux, Burgundy &; Beyond · host David Kohl
The Valais wine growing region of Switzerland lies along The Rhone River, just north of The Matterhorn within The Swiss Alps, in close proximity to the borders of both Italy & France. Here in Valais, the signature white wine grape is known as Fendant, a varietal which David Kohl has equated with Macon Chardonnay during blind tasting events. The wines of Switzerland are not readily available on retail shelves because the harvest is typically a small yield, with most production consumed domestically, rather than exported. But those who are able to obtain a Swiss Fendant offering can prepare a fun evening with fondue tasting to enhance the experience. #swissalps #swissfondue #winesofswitzerland #whitewine #fondueparty
