Côtes du Jura Chardonnay 'Bas de la Chaux'

  • Domaine Jean-Luc Mouillard
  • Jura, France

Method & Production

The Chardonnay grapes come from a single three acre vineyard called La Chaux, on a steep hillside slope, which is exclusively hand-harvested. Farmed organically since 2020. Spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel, and malolactic fermentation in old barrel, where it ages for 18 months. 

Tasting notes

Yellow-gold hue. Exuding vibrant aromas of citrus, pear, green apple, and vanilla. The palate is complex, offering a luscious creamy texture balanced by lively acidity, which highlights the wine’s salinity and minerality on the long, elegant finish.
