Discover the grape variety: Alicante Bouschet

Intensely coloured, supple reds with an ink-dark robe, smooth tannins and an ample palate of blackfruit (blackberry, blackcurrant), candied cherry, plum, spices and sunny notes. A teinturier grape with red pulp that deepens colour in southern blends; also a star as a single varietal in Alentejo DOC. Grown in Languedoc, Spain and California. French hybrid created in 1866 by Henri Bouschet (petit bouschet × grenache).

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.
