Meet Altesse, a captivating grape variety from the heart of Alpine wine country. Known for its refined, aromatic character, Altesse (often called Roussette in parts of the region) brings a sense of brightness and elegance to the glass. If you enjoy wines that feel crisp yet layered, this is one to look out for.

At Cavavin, we’ve chosen Altesse for its ability to deliver beautifully balanced flavours. Expect delightful notes that can lean towards pear, apple blossom, and delicate citrus, with a gentle, savoury edge that keeps every sip interesting. Depending on the producer and style, you might also find hints of honeyed florals or a touch of minerality that reflects the cooler growing conditions these grapes love.

One of the great things about Altesse is its versatility. It pairs wonderfully with light to medium dishes such as seafood, creamy pasta, or simply a well-seasoned plate of vegetables. It also suits moments when you want something special but not overly heavy, making it a confident choice for everything from casual get togethers to a more considered dinner.
