Domaine Les Hutins in Dardagny is now run by Émilienne Hutin Zumbach, the fifth generation of the family. The estate helped shape the Geneva wine revolution of the 1980s, focusing early on lower yields, new grape varieties and more precise vinification. Today, the family cultivates around 21 hectares organically with a biodynamic approach and vinifies a diverse range of wines directly on the estate.
A creamy Chardonnay nose with citrus, yellow apple and subtle oak notes. Silky, rich yet precise on the palate, with well-integrated oak, lovely freshness and an elegant, long finish.
Traditional vinification with ageing in barriques. The use of wood is deliberately integrated, giving the Chardonnay structure, spice and a smooth texture.
The grapes grow in the Coteaux de Dardagny, one of the most distinguished wine-growing areas in the canton of Geneva. The hillside slopes and the temperate climate promote ripe fruit, freshness and a clear, elegant structure.
