Country: Jura, France
Type: White Wine
Grape: Savagnin

Despite having trained in Bordeaux and Burgundy, Alice Bouvot knew that when it came to start her own domaine, the Jura would be the place. In 2004 she started from scratch, buying a small cellar in the village of Arbois and a couple of hectares of vines in the hills surrounding. Alice now farms around five hectares of Chardonnay, Savagnin, Poulsard, Trousseau and Pinot Noir, with holdings in some of the region’s very best lieu-dits. Vineyard work is done by hand, with biodynamic farming used to maintain biodiversity in the vineyard. 

After a number of lean vintages, Alice had to look further afield to make ends meet and now harvests grapes at trusted friends’ properties all over France, making an equally exciting range of négociant wines.

Savagnin from Arbois, macerated as whole bunches for two months, followed by a year of rest in cuve and then a short élevage in large oak casks. Exotic fruits, light tannins and a touch of spice. A beautiful, cleansing acidity adds further complexity to this wine. A truly unique Poulsard that is bottled young and is brimming with energy. Bright citrus and stones, low ABV and a lovely pair with cheese.
