Crunchy, precise Jura Pinot Noir from Céline & Steve Gormally, showing red cherry and mulberry fruit with savory herb lift and fine, silky tannins at 13% ABV.
From a plot in Frontenay next to the Les Boutonniers vineyard. This typical Jura style Pinot Noir, bright and crunchy it displays some vegetal flavours with bramble fruit and refreshing rustic tannins.
Notes on the producer
Céline and Steve Gormally farm 5.5ha of vines in Passenan, scattered around 10 plots in five villages, including the prestigious Château-Chalon.Creating Les Dolomies – a reference to Passenans’ dolomitic rock, a salty magnesium-rich limestone – in 2008, the couple live above their cellar with their three young daughters. Extremely busy Céline and Steve grew tired of regularly battling against the INAO and its administration, and from 2017 onwards they renounced the Côtes du Jura appellation for the Vin de France designation (on all bottlings). Wild yeast fermentation and bottling without fining or filtration have always been the norm.
