Estate History: Cave Mont Blanc de Morgex et La Salle was formed in 1983. The cooperative is producing white wine from Aosta’s only indigenous, white grape, Prie Blanc, along with some of the only Methodo Classico sparkling wines produced in the valley, also from Prie Blanc. Cave Mont Blanc represents 80 small artisan grower members, each too small to produce and bottle their own wine, who control a total of 18 hectares, which translates to 90% of all harvested grapes in the prime vineyards between Morgex and La Salle.
The Cave Mont Blanc believes in a philosophy of strict non-interventionist, natural wine production, always respecting the terroir and the traditions and culture of the territory. Indigenous yeasts are used in the stainless steel, temperature controlled, fermentation. The wine is carefully racked and does not undergo clarification or stabilization. The wines are bottled to order, allowing maximum freshness throughout the year. The temperature and dryness of the air make soil and vine disease scarce allowing the cooperative to use European, non-grafted vines, which results in healthier, longer lived wines with greater purity and character.
