Cave Monaja Djoue
Tucked into the remote Alpine landscapes of Valle d’Aosta, Cave Monaja captures the spirit of mountain viticulture with precision and restraint. Djoué is a selection of indigenous varieties grown on rocky, steeply pitched vineyards at considerable altitude, fermented naturally and bottled without filtration. It offers lifted aromas of wild berries, mountain herbs, and a subtle stony undertone that speaks to its mineral-rich soils.
Production is extremely limited — just 800 bottles were made — emphasizing the handmade, intimate nature of this wineOn the palate, Djoué is vivid and incisive, balancing brisk acidity with finely textured tannins. The wine’s energy and freshness are unmistakable, yet it carries a quiet depth that reveals itself with air. This is a wine of pure terroir expression: honest, refreshing, and deeply tied to the rugged beauty of its origin.
