Domaine Tissot - Chardonnay Les Graviers 2016
92/100
Robert Parker
Les Graviers is a light, airy white wine with a consistently pleasant Burgundian character. This Arbois is very fruity and mineral on the nose, with toasty, floral, and spicy notes. On the palate, it is concentrated, mineral, and full-bodied. A surprising wine in more ways than one!

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 whites, approachable like his reds, and full-bodied like his yellow wines, Stéphane Tissot is undoubtedly the driving force behind the Jura wine region. Taking over the family estate in 1993 with his wife Bénédicte, he has successfully revealed the full richness of the Jura’s terroirs through exceptional single-vineyard wines. The variety of the range 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 all strings that Stéphane Tissot adds to his bow. Some fifty hectares of vineyards, cultivated biodynamically, form one of the most exciting estates in the region.

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 biodynamically. 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 pomace is here wonderfully integrated! The reds and oxidative wines have acquired an unforgettable finesse and freedom of expression. The meticulousness of the work and the kaleidoscopic depth of the range unquestionably place the estate at the pinnacle of regional production.
