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: Primeur
Said of wines from the last vintage and, by extension, wines of the year, fruity and easy-drinking, put on sale on the third Thursday in November. The AOC regulations specify that a wine is said to be primeur if it is bottled before the spring, and nouveau if it is bottled before the following harvest. Beaujolais Nouveau is therefore a vin primeur.
