The wine region of L'Etoile
Jura AOC northwest of Lons-le-Saunier (300–350 m, triassic limestone marls with star-shaped pentacrine fossils). Chardonnay and Savagnin define the whites — ouillé style: citrus, white flowers, hazelnut; sous voile style: intense walnut, spices, curry. Straw wines and Vin Jaune show the iconic "goût de jaune": walnut, apple, candied fruit, spice, cut by sharp mineral tension.
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: Late harvest
A name historically used in Alsace, late harvest refers to grapes harvested during over-ripening for the production of sweet and syrupy wines.
