From one of our favourite estates in Jura comes another excellent wine. From a vineyard in Passenans running alongside Les Combes vineyard. A top site sitting at the same qualitive level as Les Combes.

Fine and serious with tight acid and excellent depth of flavour and an almost chalky quality to the fruit. Savoury and spicy yet also with pure orchard fruits and peach. Its just really damn good.

THE ESTATE

This is the estate of Céline and Steve Gormally. Celine established the estate in 2008 and manages around 5ha. 

When it comes to vineyard management, Celine espouses the philosophy articulated by Saint Exupery's saying: 'The earth is not ours; but lent to us by our children". Viticulture is organic, following biodynamic principles, and donkeys are used in place of machinery. Celine is also former vice president and current member of ‘Le Nez Dans Le Vert.’

They bring significant experience to their work, having been involved with renowned wineries such as Badoz, St-Pierre, and the wonderful Labet.

The wines are handled naturally, with minimal sulphite, yet are in no way funky. These are pure expressions of the Jura, showcasing the regions power, elegance and terroir.
