Details and technical informations about Winery Henri Maire's Cuvée Victor Hugo Arbois.
Discover the grape variety: Arnsburger
Lively and fruity whites with a pale golden colour, a light palate with preserved acidity and signature aromas of citrus (lemon), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (green apple) and light mineral notes. Close to Riesling without matching its finesse. Grown on small surfaces in Germany and Madeira for dry whites and sparkling base wines. German white variety obtained in 1939 at Geisenheim by Helmut Becker (Riesling × Riesling), late-ripening and productive.

The wine region of Arbois
First historic French AOC (1936) at the heart of the Jura: Trousseau and Poulsard signatures as light, fragrant native reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry and a hint of spice, fine tannins. Savagnin emblematic as an oxidative white under veil — dry and taut with notes of walnut, curry, almond and green apple, a unique Jura signature. Topped-up Chardonnay as a broad complement. Vin Jaune and Vin de Paille as age-worthy gems.
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: Lies
A deposit formed by dead yeast after fermentation. Some white wines are aged on their lees, which makes their aromas and structure more complex and richer.
