Region: Jura
Type: White Wine

Despite having trained in Bordeaux and Burgundy, Alice Bouvot knew that when it came to start her own domaine, the Jura would be the place. In 2004 she started from scratch, buying a small cellar in the village of Arbois and a couple of hectares of vines in the hills surrounding. Alice now farms around five hectares of Chardonnay, Savagnin, Poulsard, Trousseau and Pinot Noir, with holdings in some of the region’s very best lieu-dits. Vineyard work is done by hand, with biodynamic farming used to maintain biodiversity in the vineyard.
After a number of lean vintages, Alice had to look further afield to make ends meet and now harvests grapes at trusted friends’ properties all over France, making an equally exciting range of négociant wines.
Direct press Chardonnay, spontaneous fermentation in fiberglass with indigenous yeasts. Aged in fiberglass and bottled unfined and unfiltered, with no added sulfur. A fresh and easygoing wine with brisk fruit, hazy minerality and a clean salty finish.
