WINE | WHITE WINE | JURA | COTES DU JURA BLANCBottle of : 0.75L
A distinctive Chardonnay from a small cooperative in the Jura
- This is a forthright, bone-dry Chardonnay that expresses the mineral character of its terroir with clarity and precision. The wine displays the restraint and purity typical of quality Jura whites, avoiding unnecessary oak influence in favour of varietal expression.
- The vineyard is managed according to reasoned viticulture principles, balancing sustainable practice with respect for the vines' natural vigour. This thoughtful approach yields grapes of genuine quality without recourse to intensive intervention.
- An excellent aperitif wine, equally at home alongside freshly caught fish or delicate poultry dishes. Its dry profile and mineral backbone make it particularly suitable for lighter cuisine where subtlety is valued over richness.

In the mouth
The palate is rich and well-structured, with good amplitude and a satisfying roundness. The wine possesses excellent length, with the mineral character persisting through to a clean, dry finish that encourages another sip.
On the nose
The bouquet is pronounced and inviting, revealing prominent hazelnut aromatics alongside white stone fruit and subtle floral notes. There is a mineral quality that speaks to the limestone-rich soils of the appellation.
On the eye
Brilliant pale golden yellow, with good clarity and luminosity in the glass.
Breeding
12 months in oak barrels
What distinguishes this Chardonnay is the balance between its floral character and the fresh fruit notes that run through the mid-palate. The wine avoids the heaviness sometimes associated with Chardonnay, instead offering elegance and clarity. It represents genuine value from a serious small producer in one of France's most underrated wine regions.
