About Poulsard: Sometimes spelled Ploussard, this grape is native to the Jura. It gives wiens that range from elegant and aromatic, to animal and rustic. The color is always a light red.
Winemaking Notes: Grapes are sourced from vines that are 50 years old in the La Mailloche Vineyard and the En Curon Vineyard. The wine is fermented in old oak and aged for one year in it before release.
Tasting Notes: Generous texture, soft tannins, juicy strawberry, cherry, herbs and minerals.
About: 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.
