The water of the French Alps | eau de source de montagne In Megève there is a nature reserve known to the elders for generations, where several springs flow, the Domaine de La Sasse. The history: The extreme purity of the water in the Mont Blanc massif has always been known to the local population and 200 years ago the then French/Italian inhabitants called the place "El Sasso" which means "the stone". The Domaine de la Sasse is the last completely naturally preserved area in Megève, the famous Rothschild ski resort. Passed down from generation to generation, the Domaine de la Sasse now belongs to Dominique Méridol, whose aim is to protect this vast wild space. For more than a quarter of a century, he has protected his sanctuary from any human activity, following his ancestor's motto: "Preserve our heritage and take care of it". When Dominique's grandfather became seriously ill in 1990, he asked for water from his mountain. This was the beginning of the adventure of the unique La Sasse water. His ancestors' favorite mountain spring was "La Taverne" because of its reliable and constant flow. After a long journey through natural filtration in the alpine rock, this low-sodium mountain spring water shows a remarkably balanced balance that is clearly noticeable when tasting. The source: The artesian spring rises from the shale rock of the two-and-a-half-meter Mont Joly at 1,740 meters, making it the highest spring in Europe. The water springs from the mountain without any mechanical aid and is bottled as it is on the mountain without any further processing. Due to the geographical location, bottling is only possible during the summer months, which is also one of the reasons for this special rarity. An old, now self-sufficient farm was converted into a climate-neutral bottling plant for this purpose. The water from La Sasse is only produced for a few months of the year, when the snow cover subsides and the only road to the Domaine de la Sasse becomes passable, but the spring itself is isolated from all weather conditions. The water: The artesian mountain spring water is low in sodium and is extremely delicate with a palate-pleasing alpine finish. It is very soft and smooth at first sip. Contrary to its name, it is hardly stony, rarely creamy, with an unobtrusive neutrality and a pleasant drinking texture. Basically, it tastes much calmer and Stiller than its TDS of almost 200 would suggest. Clearly one of the most delicious alpine waters we have tasted. Top level of balance. Very good aftertaste with light sweetness and light, pleasant dryness. It is a seasonal meltwater that can surprise with the variety of delicate flavor profiles from Mother Nature. (Description: Water sommeliers Pat Eckert and Milin Patel) The design: As an aesthete, Dominique dreamed of a bottle as extraordinary as water itself. The frosted glass bottle was then shaped by his friend and sculptor Pierre Margara. The vertical lines symbolize the mountain, the spirit of water, the waterfalls. From his imagination emerged a sophisticated, sensual, moving form, so beautiful to look at that it is amazingly soft to the touch. Sustainability: La Sasse has been bottled since 2017. The surrounding nature reserve, like the bottling plant, is family-owned and there are no dependencies. The source is protected like the entire area and bottling takes place under the strictest conditions.
