Chardonnay. Beautiful and fresh with great energy and complexity.

Chardonnay from Les Gaudrettes is always a stand-out. This is a Côtes du Jura Chardonnay, a cuvée the domaine has made for many years. The parcel Les Gaudrettes has a westerly exposition and is comprised of red marl and Triassic iridescent Keuper, which is formed from Atlantic sediments in the late Triassic much of which was created from the remains of dinosaurs! The late Triassic occured roughly between 210 and 201 million years ago.) The vines were planted in 1975. It was directly pressed, initially fermented in vats and then aged for three years in foudre with topping up
About the Producer

Domaine Bornard, a shining beacon of natural wine in the village of Pupillin in the Jura. The Domaine was founded by Phillipe Bornard in 2005 after Phillipe decided to leave his local cave co-operative after 30 years to make his own wine- thanks to some persuasion from friend and Jura legend, Pierre Overnoy. Phillipe quickly became one of the most interesting wine-makers in the region, crafting distinguished wines that are pure and some of the most exciting expressions of the region.

Like Pierre Overnoy, he picks by hand, respects his vines and intervenes at least in the vinification process. Inputs" are banned and SO2 is just used with mastery at the time of bottling. Long macerations, long maturing in casks, up to 3 years for the whites for example, characterize fine and delicate wines, vibrant, with precise flavours, also destined for long ageing and playing on an exceptional freshness!

Philippe has retired in 2017 and his son Tony currently runs the estate.
