__________________________
More erglgitt from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. This is a wine produced from the Prie Blanc grape. It is thought to have originated on the valley below Mt.Blanc, although there is some thought it might have originated in the Valais of Switzerland. This wine comes from the highest vnyd in Europe atop Mt.Blanc. It's alpine origins are very distinct. Quite a riviting white.

Swiss/Ital wines from this region have been a recent revelation, and I don't recall seeing this producer in my searches for same. Sounds like something I'd love to try, I'll look for this.

Oh, did you note the importer?

Atop Mont Blanc? A 15,000+ feet?

Here’s some actual text from the Rosenthal site:

“At about 1,200 meters above sea level, these are some of the highest vineyards in Europe.”

So far below the top of Mont Blanc.
