Côtes du Jura Trousseau Marnes Blanches (Domaine des) 2021
The wine
The Trousseau which makes up this cuvée originates from a marly and limestone soil. This rich soil gives this wine its aromatic bouquet and a rich texture, remarkably counterbalanced by fine minerality. The strong tannic structure sharpens over time and means it can be paired with flavoursome dishes.
About the Producer Domaine des Marnes Blanches
Situated in Sainte-Agnès in the Jura, the Domaine des Marnes Blanches is owned by Pauline and Géraud Frémont, a couple of young oenologists. In 2006 they took over 10 hectares of Savignin, Chardonnay, Trousseau, Pinot Noir and Poulsard and have recently acquired some very old vines. Their domain has organic certification and their methods include laying the rows in between the vines to grass and tilling the soil. In the chai, vinifications are carried out with as little intervention as possible as per the owners’ belief that ‘the wine should make itself’. The pressing of the grapes is gentle and vinifications are done plot by plot with sulphur only added ‘homeopathically’. This is an excellent domain whose wines express their terroir in all its complexity and diversity.
