Tiny-production, topped‑up Arbois blend of Chardonnay and Savagnin from Bruyère & Houillon. Mineral and saline with real depth, shaped by very low 2017 yields.
A beguiling blend of topped up Chardonnay and Savagnin from some true stars of Jura. Deep and layered this is perfectly balanced, we are just sad there is micro amounts available.
Notes on the producer
Adeline Houillon and Renaud Bruyère moved to the little village of Pupillin (next to Arbois, in the Jura region) in 2011. Together, they started cultivating their now 5 hectares vineyard, following biodynamic principles. Although they have never tried to obtain the official Demeter certification, Adeline and Renaud still have adopted this philosophy for their estate. Here, the harvest is entirely done by hand, nothing gets added during the winemaking process, there's no filtration, no fining…
Adeline trained at the Domaine Pierre Overnoy, now managed by her brother Emmanuel since 2001. As for Renaud, he used to work for the Domaine Tissot. An impressive pedigree for such a young couple of winemakers, and their respect for the terroir (resulting in extremely high-quality wines) is recommendable as well. This all might explain why the bottles from the estate are sought-after by a lot of connoisseurs.
