This white wine features a beautifully pronounced acidity, which lends a bright and lively character, enhancing its complexity. The body is full and well-structured, creating a delightful sensation on the palate. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing layers of ripe stone fruit and subtle nutty nuances, reflecting the wine's age and meticulous craftsmanship. It is bone dry, a characteristic hallmark of the varietal, which aligns perfectly with its crisp finish, inviting you to savor each sip. This wine exhibits a wonderful balance, making it an exceptional choice for those looking to explore the depths of Jura's wine-growing traditions.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
