Wine rated 14/20 (2015 vintage) (Good wine)

Rated Estate (2020 Guide) Selected (An estate or winery that impressed us with one or more of its wines, though we are unable to offer a general assessment of the style of its entire lineup)

About the estate:

Éric and Bérengère Thill farm their 5 hectares using organic methods to produce a range of wines made exclusively from single grape varieties: staying true to his Alsatian roots, Éric thus offers a varietal interpretation of the Jura’s terroirs, particularly those in the south. The results lack consistency, as the wines marketed as “natural” sometimes exhibit notes of oxidation.
