About the wine

A skin-contact Savagnin with citrus peel, ginger spice and a saline edge. Maceration brings fine tannins and texture, followed by maturation on lees in neutral vessels and bottling without fining or filtration.

About Les Dolomies

Les Dolomies is the Jura domaine created by Céline Gormally in 2008, with her husband Steve joining full-time in 2016. Based in Passenans, the name refers to the local dolomitic limestone. Their vineyards are farmed organically with biodynamic practices, and the wines are fermented with native yeasts and bottled without fining or filtration. Since 2017, the couple have chosen to release their wines as Vin de France, keeping the focus on their individual vineyard sites.
