An exquisite Chardonnay revealing notes of citrus, floral tones, and an elegant touch of oak.
More infoThe Chardonnay vines, around thirty years old, are pampered and pruned short. They benefit from meticulous and balanced organic viticulture methods, banning all chemical inputs. The soils, consisting of a mixture of clay and limestone, are perfect for nurturing the Chardonnay grape and producing fine, elegant wines. The hand-picked fruit is carefully vinified and matured on a plot-by-plot basis. The cuvée is then bottled with minimal doses of sulphur. The bright, golden colour is complemented by a captivating nose, characterised by floral notes mingling with subtle woody nuances. On the palate, the generous citrus flavours combine perfectly with the aromas of the nose leading to a complex and persistent finish. This cuvée can be enjoyed young and also offers long ageing potential.
About the Producer Domaine de la Renardière
Domaine de la Renardière, created in 1990, is nestled between the famous Jura villages of Arbois and Pupillin. The estate is now run by Jean Michel and Laurence Petit. They passionately tend six hectares of vines, planted with the typical grape varieties of the region such as Trousseau, Poulsard, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Savagnin. Their aim is to showcase the quality and flavours of Jura’s varieties. Well aware of the current environmental concerns and with a view to protecting biodiversity, the winemakers adhere to strict organic farming practices since 2010. It’s in these conditions that the vines with their roots dug deep into the rich, red marl soils, grow the grapes that create these top-quality vines. After harvesting the grapes entirely by hand, vinification is carried out with minimal intervention and sulphur are added in minute quantities.
For several years now, the son of the winemakers Léo Petit joined the estate, breathing a breath of fresh air into their work, all while respecting the heritage. The property offers a range of perfumed and elegant wines, perfectly reflecting the Jura terroir.
