Côtes du Jura Sous la Roche Jean-François Ganevat (Domaine) 2014
The wine
Cuvée Sous Roche comes from young Savagnin vines (yellow, green, pink), planted in 2000. Its nose evokes baked apple as well as buttery and grilled notes. On the palate, we encounter fine acidity, a ripe and dense texture, lemony flavours and a lingering finish which is flavoursome and mouthwatering, with grilled and saline notes.
Former head winemaker of Jean-Marc Morey in Chassagne-Montrachet, Jean-François Gavenat has become one of the most talented winemakers in the Jura since he took over his family estate in 1998. Located in Rotalier in the hamlet of La Combe, the vineyard spans 13 hectares and includes many different grape varieties. Gavenat has a natural and biodynamic approach (without certification) and produces some single vineyard wines (the estate boasts 50 different cuvées). The vines are relatively old and meticulously cared for. The yields are low and the vinifcations gentle. Some of the reds are matured in amphorae are of a very high quality.
The property’s grande cuvée is Les Vignes de mon Père, a Savagnin aged for ten years.
Jean-François Gavenat has also set up a small négociant business with his wife under the name ‘Anne et Jean-François Ganevat’, which allows him to produce and offer even more wines to the world. This estate has played an important part in increasing the popularity of wines from the Jura. Production is small and the wines are prized by wine lovers all over.
