Spirale is a sweet wine made from grapes that have been dried for several months; it is rich and indulgent, opening with aromas of quince, dried apricot, and honey. It is a very dense and concentrated wine, with beautiful fruit that leaves a remarkably fresh finish on the palate. A rare wine worth discovering!

Rated estate (2020 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

Sparkling like his crémants, energetic like his white wines, approachable like his reds, and full-bodied like his yellow wines, Stéphane Tissot is undoubtedly the driving force behind the Jura wine region. Taking the reins of the family estate in 1993 alongside his wife Bénédicte, he has successfully brought to light the full richness of the Jura’s terroirs through exceptional single-vineyard wines. The variety of his portfolio is matched only by the quality and purity of the wines, as well as the winemaker’s masterful craftsmanship and tireless experimentation. High-density trellis planting, mass selection, aging in amphorae, extended maceration, and sulfur-free wines are just some of the techniques Stéphane Tissot has added to his repertoire. Some fifty hectares of vineyards, cultivated biodynamically, make up one of the region’s most exciting estates.

Rated estate (2020 guide): 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience)

About the estate:

What an incredible journey Stéphane Tissot has been on since 1990! The vineyard’s transition to organic farming began in 1999, and today it is cultivated using biodynamic methods. Regardless of the type of wine, everything is managed with talent and sensitivity, and the flavors are of perfect integrity. The Macvin wines are the finest in the region. The rustic character often imparted by the grape pomace is wonderfully integrated here! The reds and oxidative wines have acquired an unforgettable finesse and freedom of expression. The meticulous craftsmanship and the kaleidoscopic depth of the lineup unquestionably place the estate at the pinnacle of regional wine production.

Review and comment by Mr. DENIS B. Posted on September 15, 2018

A sun-dried white wine, similar to straw wine. It boasts an exceptional sugar content and, naturally, complex aromas of currants, honey, and candied apricots. Though small in size, this bottle is a real treat—a wonderful dessert wine to enjoy after a 2002 Vin Jaune de l’Étoile by Philippe Vandel, paired with a Jura cheese platter.
