Winemaking Notes: Fermented in old oak and aged for one year in it before release. Notice that this is a Vin de France rather than being under the Arbois appellation. Starting with the 2012 vintage, L'Octavin has decided not to participate in the AOC.
Tasting Notes: Light color with a weight and texture of a red wine. Great with an array of foods as well as an aperitif.
About Domaine de L'Octavin: This is one of the most exciting new domaines in the Jura. This is a collaboration between a young couple and is a dedication to natural work in the vineyards as well as the cellars. They are located in Arbois and have been producing wine since 2005. They started on a mere 1.5 hectares of vineyards now farm just under 5 hectares. They make wines with the intention of extracting very site specific expression. Each wine they make is mono-varietal and comes from a small plot within Arbois. Since 2009 they have been producing all of their wines without the addition of SO2.
