Details and technical informations about Winery Henri Maire's Château du Sorbief Arbois Pupillin Rouge.
Discover the grape variety: Plant droit
Light, simple, fruity reds with a pale ruby robe, silky tannins and an airy, moderately acidic palate, with undemonstrative aromas of red fruits. A discreet, rustic southern profile. Almost absent from commercial cultivation, preserved in INRAE variety collections for its heritage value, it testifies to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the southern French vineyard. A rare French black grape, once grown in the South-East.

The wine region of Arbois Pupillin
Sub-appellation of Arbois around the commune of Pupillin (Jura): five grapes — Chardonnay, Savagnin (the most expressive in the Jura), Pinot Noir, Poulsard and Trousseau. Full-bodied and fruity Chardonnay or Chardonnay-Savagnin blend (10-20%) whites, sometimes vin jaune character under the veil. Ageable Trousseau reds with red fruits and spices. Signature "onion skin" Poulsard roses, delicate and pale.
The wine region of Jura
Unique Franche-Comté region between Burgundy and Switzerland, incomparable oxidative identity. Signature mythical Vin Jaune from Savagnin: aged 6 years 3 months in cask under flor, intense whites with signature green walnut, curry, cumin, russet apple, honey and lingering iodine — 62 cl clavelin, century-long ageing. Also classic topped-up Chardonnay (citrus, butter), pale light Poulsard red (strawberry, undergrowth), dense Trousseau, fine Pinot Noir. Sweet Vin de Paille.
The word of the wine: Fleshy
Said of a wine that gives the impression of being dense and smooth, a bit like biting into the flesh of a ripe fruit.
