To the eye
A magnificent golden colour that gives way to brown hues, reflecting the prolonged maceration of the grapes. Minimal filtration preserves the natural, rich character of the wine.

Nose
A powerful and complex bouquet. The characteristic notes of génépi are immediately apparent: an intensely floral profile blended with hints of high-mountain herbs and a touch of freshly cut hay.

Palate
The initial taste is bold and generous. It offers a naturally bitter and floral intensity, the hallmark of a characterful génépi. The mid-palate is dense, revealing the purity of the aromas extracted with patience. The balance between the strength of the herb and the finesse of the liqueur is remarkable.

Pairing
A traditional digestif, to be savoured slowly, served at cellar temperature or slightly chilled. It pairs perfectly with dark chocolate desserts or full-flavoured cheeses to complement its natural bitterness.

Aging potential
This liqueur, crafted with care, can be kept for several years. Its colour and aromas are preserved thanks to the quality of the maceration process, although it is advisable to store it away from light to preserve its natural hues.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is this génépi suitable if I’m looking for an aromatically expressive liqueur?

Yes: the description highlights the strength of the génépi and the depth of flavor achieved. It is therefore a fitting choice if you are looking for a pronounced herbal presence rather than a subtle profile.

What does long maceration bring to the tasting experience?

It is at the heart of the aromatic richness described for this liqueur. To appreciate it, pay attention to the expression of the génépi and the depth of the flavors, the two characteristics highlighted by AUCTUS.

Is this an alternative worth exploring if I enjoy mint liqueurs?

It offers a chance to discover a different plant: Alpine génépi, crafted here through long maceration. However, the information provided does not support attributing a minty freshness comparable to that of a mint liqueur.

Can I choose this bottle as I would a Burgundy wine?

No: despite being listed in the Burgundy section, this is a génépi liqueur, not a wine. It should therefore be chosen for its expression of macerated herbs, without applying the reference points of a wine or a vintage.

What makes this cuvée interesting to a fan of craft liqueurs?

Artisanal expertise and long maceration are explicitly highlighted. The appeal here lies in discovering a process focused on a specific plant and on preserving its aromatic expression.
