Jura/Savoie

The Tissot family has been making wine in the Jura for decades — Stéphane's father André started the domaine in 1962. Stéphane's first vintage was in 1989, at the tender age of 19, and almost immediately thereafter he decided to eschew >>>

From a single parcel of 40- to 70-year-old vines, this is 80% Chardonnay and 20% Savagnin. The grapes are cofermented, and the wine spends 30 to 36 months sous voile. Dense and resinous with the strong acidity to carry that weight.

This small estate owned by Isabelle and Jérémy Decoster Coiffier in Bugey, is doing it right. Working organically, avoiding inputs, except minimalist sulfur (when needed), they produce very pure and fresh wines. >>>

A blend of Chardonnay and Savagnin from the Jura. This wine is filled with hazelnuts and golden russet apples, and is the perfect pairing for comte.

Clean, bright and wildly satisfying wine made of 100% indigenous Jacquère. Light, floral, perfectly refreshing with a Chablis-like chalkiness. A perfect match for shellfish, especially oysters.
