Very selective manual harvest of Chasselas grapes. Crushing and pneumatic pressing followed by overnight settling of the juice. Subsequent fermentation, including malolactic fermentation, in large oak casks. Maturation on the fine lees for 10 to 15 months, with regular bâtonnage (lees stirring).

Bright gold colour. Complex aromas of toasted bread, honey and roasted almond on the nose. The palate is dense, rich and well structured, underscored by mineral characters and wonderful length.

Vertiginous terraced vineyards formed of moraine deposits with varied properties. The soils here are generally lighter than those further west in the La Côte appellation situated between Lausanne and Geneva. Médinette has a legendary reputation that dates back to the beginning of the 20th century. The depiction on the bottle label – a family member dressed as the god of wine Bacchus at the Fête des Vignerons wine festival of 1905 – is considered an iconic symbol of Vaud wine.
