Description
Jean-Pierre Pellegrin is one of the stars of the Geneva vineyard, even if the man is much more discreet and humble than the glittering image that clings to him.
In 1989, he received the estate from his father and took his destiny as a winegrower in hand. In 1994, he restored the magnificent 600 year old family farm himself and built a cellar in old stones which is without doubt one of the most beautiful in the canton. However, even if it is rooted in a place with a long tradition, there is nothing old-fashioned about the Grand'Cour estate, quite the contrary.
On his 15 hectares and on 15 others which he recently took over, "JPP" cultivates, with the help of his eternal second-in-command Bruno and his teams, about twenty grape varieties, which they transform into as many vintages that are sought after by the best restaurants and the most discerning amateurs.
Tasting
The nose is minty and peppery, with hints of incense and roasted pepper.
On the palate, it is fresh, subtle, taut and reserved, with tannins of a nobility that is hard to surpass.
Contains sulfites
