A really long (to say the least!) maturation process endows this wine with very complex, well-developed aromas of prune, leather, hazelnut, stewed fruit and a hint of vanilla... The palate is powerful, with depth and persistence – a lovely way to end a meal.
Stéphane Tissot
Stéphane Tissot took over the beautiful family estate from André and Mireille Tissot in 1990, and in over thirty years has accomplished a colossal task to reach the summit of the Jura and become a model far beyond the borders of France. After converting the entire vineyard to organic farming in 1999, the estate was certified biodynamic in 2004. This has been a relentless, honourable, unblemished career. Stéphane and his wife Bénédicte have never rested on their laurels – nor on their beautiful parcels of old vines, but have brought them to the top and made them shine through natural, sulphur-free winemakings and a wide range of cuvées: Crémant, vin jaunes, vin de paille, Macvin, maceration, amphora aging, etc. Myriad styles mastered for a complete range from powerful, precise, mineral whites to highly digestible, fruity reds. A flagship estate, awarded three stars by the Revue des Vins de France, which we are proud to present to you vintage after vintage.
