Old-vine Jura Chardonnay with depth, breadth and quiet power

Mature

Complex

Savory

Endless

Layered and refined old-vine Chardonnay with yellow orchard fruit and chalk-infused minerality.

Nose: Yellow orchard and stone fruit, delicate floral undertones, citrus pith, whisper of honeyed complexity.
Palate:Fresh, finely poised acidity gives tension and drive without sharpness. Extended lees ageing contributes subtle textural richness that broadens the mid-palate. Chalk-infused mineral thread with saline nuance runs through the profile.
Finish:Persistent and refined, reflecting the depth and structural elegance of old-vine Chardonnay from this site.
Serve: Chilled, 10–12°C.

A structured, age-worthy expression from very old vines planted around 1919.

Chardonnay from Les Grands Teppes near Rotalier in the Côtes du Jura, sourced from very old vines (planted around 1919) on deep white marl soils rich in clay.

Vines: 100% old-vine Chardonnay from biodynamically farmed parcels with meticulous manual work and very low yields.
Soils: Deep white marl rich in clay, contributing profound mineral imprint and structure.
Farming: Biodynamic viticulture with very low yields.
Cellar: Whole-cluster pressing, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, followed by extended lees ageing in older oak demi-muids and neutral vessels.
Additions: Minimal sulphites, no fining, no filtration.
