Probably the only cuvée produced from five red and white Jura grape varieties (Pinot Noir, Trousseau, Poulsard, Chardonnay and Savagnin). Unique in its kind, fruity, delicate and very digestible.
More infoProduced from five red grape varieties (Pinot Noir, Trousseau, Poulsard, Chardonnay and Savagnin), this cuvée is aged for two years in barrels. It stands out thanks to its aromas of very ripe, red fruit and notes of sweet spices. The palate is delicate, slender, fresh and full-bodied.
About the Producer Château d'Arlay
Regarded as the oldest winemaking château in France, Château d’Arlay has, in the past, been home to Minim friars and the Countess of Lauragais to name just a couple. In 1960, the Count of Laguiche decided that the château should make wine once again like it used to in the Middle-Ages. His son Alain has now handed over the reins to his own son Pierre-Armand. THe estate follows a very modern approach to vinifications but chooses a more traditional style when it comes to the ageing of the wines. The wines are matured in the magnificent cellars of the Château that date back to the 17th century. There are around 22 hectares of vines that are planted to Pinot Noir, Trousseau, Poulsard, Chardonnay and Savignin. The vines are situated on slopes at an altitude of 200 to 240 metres. Some of the vines are relatively old, planted in 1953. This domain has an organic approach but does not possess certification. One of the icons of the Jura, the wines of Château d’Arlay are a must try!
