Jura/Savoie

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.

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.

Quite a few parcels comprise Les Matheny’s Chardonnay, and Emeric vinifies each one separately, deciding on the final blend only after each individual wine develops its personality with time in barrel—in this case, well-worn 600-liter tonneaux.

Predominantly Poulsard and Trousseau, Natural.

Pretty much head over heels for Domaine des Ardoisieres. The Argile Rouge is herby, deep, and brambly. From vineyards on steep, rocky slopes high above the town of Freterive.

Many Jura wines are made in an oxidative style, this wine is not. Clean, fresh and focused. Fermented and aged for ten months, aromatic citrus rind and peach notes invigorates the palate with hints of salt, iodine, preserved lemon and stone fruit.

Tissot is one of the best known producers in the Jura and is much loved by all fans of this obscure region. Perhaps no grape is more emblematic of the gorgeous mountain juice that the Jura produces than Poulsard, with its oozing charm

Aged nutty Jura white, what more could you ask for?

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.
