The 2025 Pavese e Figli Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle is a vivid Alpine white made from the indigenous Prié Blanc grape in Italy’s Valle d’Aosta. Grown on steep, sandy mountain vineyards beneath Mont Blanc, it offers delicate aromas of green apple, pear and fresh citrus alongside white flowers, mountain herbs and a touch of white pepper.
On the palate, it is light, dry and exceptionally energetic, with piercing natural acidity and a fine lees-derived texture. Crisp orchard fruit is carried by pronounced stony minerality and a subtle saline character, leading to a clean, linear and refreshing finish with lingering citrus and Alpine herbs.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a fascinating choice for drinkers who enjoy Chablis, Muscadet or other crisp, mineral-driven whites. Serve well chilled at 8–10°C and enjoy now through 2031. Ideal with oysters, shellfish, grilled fish, fresh cheese, charcuterie, fondue or light vegetable dishes.
