Discover the grape variety: Franc de Haute-Saône
Light, fresh reds to drink young, with a lightly coloured clear ruby robe, soft tannins and an airy palate with preserved acidity, showing understated aromas of red fruits. Discreet Jura profile. Now almost extinct, preserved in varietal conservatories for its heritage value, it bears witness to the ampelographic diversity of pre-phylloxera Jura viticulture. French autochthonous black grape from the Haute-Saône vineyard in Franche-Comté.

The word of the wine: Wiring
Action of periodically filling barrels containing wine, in order to offset evaporation and maintain a maximum level. The topping up allows to avoid the phenomenon of oxidation.
