Then, the history of the winemaking began in 1939 when winegrowers from three villages in the Combe de Savoie region came together to create the Cave des Vins Fins de Cruet.
The winegrowers harvest each grape variety by hand and separately, at their optimum maturity.
When the harvested grapes are transported to the Cave de Cruet, they undergo rigorous qualitative and quantitative control before being vinified.
More than 80 years after its creation, the Cave des Vins Fins de Cruet is made up of 240 hectares of vines, 70 member producers and 12 employees.
It produces 15,000 hectoliters of wine per year, which is more than 20% of all Savoie wines.
Each year, several of its cuvées are awarded medals at various national and international competitions.
