Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby hue, smooth tannins and a soft palate with fresh acidity; undemonstrative aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), gentle spices and Jura floral notes. Airy high-altitude style, best drunk young. Preserved for its heritage value, it survives in a few confidential plots in the Jura. Native French black grape of the Jura, also called méclan, near-extinct.

The wine region of Willamette Valley

World benchmark for Pinot Noir outside Burgundy: elegant, fine reds with notes of cherry, raspberry, plum, undergrowth, damp earth and sweet spices, silky tannins and acidity preserved by the cool climate. Star grape on volcanic soils (Jory), Burgundian latitude (45°). Also taut Chardonnay in full quality rise, round Pinot Gris and lively Riesling. Oregon's main AVA (240 km between Coast Range and Cascades).

The wine region of Oregon

American benchmark for fresh, elegant Pinot Noir. Fine, silky reds with signature notes of red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, undergrowth and spice, delicate tannins and taut freshness — the closest style to Burgundy outside France. Iconic Willamette Valley on volcanic (Jory) and marine soils. Also precise, mineral Chardonnay, ample Pinot Gris (pear, honey), taut Riesling.

The word of the wine: Ovoids (tanks)

Egg-shaped vats used for wine making and maturing that favour the natural suspension of the lees thanks to the vortex movements, which give the wine more fat and fruity aromas.
