The wine region of Château-Chalon
Ultra-exclusive Jura AOC (~60 ha, 250–400 m, steep south-west slopes, Liassic clay-limestone marls): exclusive Savagnin in the signature amber vin jaune — penetrating aromas of walnut, apple, candied fruits, curry (sotolon), gentle spices and saline minerality, exceptionally persistent finish. Aged under voile for at least 6 years 3 months in unsealed barrels, bottled in a 62 cl clavelin. Near-centennial longevity, Benedictine heritage.
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: Presses
The juice that results from pressing the grapes after fermentation. At the end of the maceration, the vats are emptied, the first juice obtained is called the free-run wine and the marc remaining at the bottom of the vat is then pressed to give the press wine. We say more quickly "the presses". Their quality varies according to the vintage and the maceration. A too vigorous extraction releases the tannins of pips and the wine of press can then prove to be very astringent. Often the winemaker raises it separately, deciding later whether or not to incorporate it totally or partially into the grand vin.
