Cave Mont Blanc

Europe's highest vineyards (900-1200m) in a 1983 cooperative of 70 mountain families producing Prié Blanc on ungrafted, centuries-old vines, creating 'glacier bubbles' sparkling wines from the shadow of Mont Blanc.

What to do there

AdventureBlanc de Morgex - highest white wine in EuropeThe Blanc de Morgex et de La Salle DOC produces white wine from Prié Blanc at 900-1200m - the highest in Europe. Pre-phylloxera vines grow ungrafted on their own roots because the pest cannot survive at this altitude.
