Blanc de Morgex et de la Salle, Pavese Ermes - 2025

750 mL
Item # 34570

Ermes Pavese is a youthful grower in the commune of La Ruine just outside of the town of Morgex in the high Alps, minutes from the summit of Mont Blanc. Pavese works the native grape known as Prié Blanc. Starting with barely two hectares of vineyards, situated at about 1200 meters above sea level, Pavese has gradually expanded his holdings in this high altitude zone. He now produces three versions of Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle. Because these vineyards are so isolated, Pavese has been able to work with the original, pre-Phylloxera root stock since that malady never infiltrated this area when it came sweeping through Europe many years ago. This is an amazing bottle of white wine that you can drink all night long.

Staff Pick Notes

If you’re looking for an original gift or want to taste something truly unique, I recommend this wine, as fresh as the Alpine air. At the foot of Mont Blanc, among some of Europe’s highest vineyards, an extraordinary Alpine white wine is born. Produced by Ermes Pavese from 100% Prié Blanc grapes, an indigenous variety of the Aosta Valley, it is cultivated at 900–1,200 metres, capturing the freshness and purity of the mountains. What makes it so special? The vines are still ungrafted, growing on their own roots, never affected by phylloxera. This rare characteristic makes the wine even more unique. Fresh, mineral-driven and crystal-clear, it reveals aromas of white flowers, aromatic herbs and pear, with delicate spicy notes. On the palate, it is vibrant, elegant and persistent, with an Alpine energy that makes you want another sip.
