Information
Native to Franche-Comté, Poulsard, also known as Ploussard, is the second most common grape variety in the Jura, accounting for 80% of the region’s red grape varieties. Its small clusters and medium-sized berries flourish on red marl soils, which is where Poulsard is at its best. The vines, averaging some thirty years in age, reap the benefits of organic viticulture combined with a natural approach. In the winery, the estate combines tradition and modernity by vinifying the Poulsard grapes in a natural, low interventionist way.
The red colour is enhanced by an incredibly intense bouquet revealing expressive notes of small red fruit such as raspberry and redcurrant. The ample and structured mouthfeel affirms the aromas of the nose while delicately leading to a fresh, flavoursome and incredibly persistent finish.
