“100% Savagnin that truly reflects its terroir”
"The 2022 Côtes du Jura Savagnier is a Savagnin made using the 'ouillé' method, sourced from vines planted in the Savagnier cru in the village of Lavigny on marl soils in the 1990s. It was fermented with native yeasts and aged exclusively in stainless steel for 10 months. It is fresh and varietal, with 13.5% alcohol. It displays aromatic purity and is stony and slightly reductive, with a hint of flint, beautifully textured with a fine thread, integrated acidity, and a dry, chalky finish. 6,000 bottles were bottled in July 2023.

Rated 2 stars (A solid, recommendable production, though slightly more conventional and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
The estate overlooks the entire town of Château-Chalon, perched on a rocky outcrop at an elevation of 450 meters. Jean has passed the torch to his daughter Hélène, who returned to take over the business after a career as a translator in Brussels, and now oversees the smooth operation of the 15-hectare vineyard. Certified organic since 2013, the wines are among the vineyard’s greatest successes, particularly the voile wines, the estate’s signature specialty. The yellow wines (4.5 hectares in Château-Chalon) are aged in magnificent vaulted cellars.

Rated estate (2024 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when tasting the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
Chantal and Jean Berthet-Bondet, both agricultural engineers, left the city in 1985 to establish this 11-hectare estate, located equally within the Château-Chalon and Côtes du Jura appellations, and certified organic since 2013. Hélène, Jean’s daughter, is now at the helm. The quality is evolving toward greater expression and purity of the fruit. New vintages and labels for fortified wines have been cleverly reimagined, though the wines aged under a veil remain the estate’s undisputed stars, with a Château-Chalon that serves as a model for the prestigious appellation.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 89/100
About the wine:
The 2022 Côtes du Jura Savagnier takes its name from a dedicated vineyard plot. Aged for a year in stainless steel tanks, the 2022 exhibits reductive notes along with wet stone and lemon flesh. Medium-bodied and concentrated, the vintage’s ripeness is carefully balanced by the Savagnier’s sharp acidity. A salty finish rounds out the wine.
La Tulipe Rouge
Wine rated (2024 guide) 89/100
About the wine:
Citrus, pear, and apple seeds characterize this lovely Savagnin, with its delicate pastry notes and a fresh, lively finish.
