The wine region of Côtes du Jura
Regional Jura AOC, atypical wines of strong identity. Fresh, straight Chardonnay as classic white (white flowers, citrus, apple). Savagnin under flor, oxidative signature: unique whites with notes of fresh walnut, curry, honey, overripe apple and toasted almond — the base of the legendary Vin Jaune aged 6 years in cask. Light-ruby, fruity Poulsard (strawberry, raspberry), tannic, animal Trousseau as reds.
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: Oxidative (breeding)
A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
