"A spicy, delicate, and silky Persian wine"

Original and appealing, this wine perfectly reflects the characteristics of Persan, a grape variety native to St. Jean de Maurienne. With lovely aromas of wild berries, candied cherries, and strawberries, Les 2 Jean offers a lively and invigorating palate with tangy red fruit. It has a light structure and a lovely character. A wine worth trying with tapas.

Wine rated (2025 guide) 90/100 (2022 vintage)

Rated estate (2021 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Jean-François Quénard took over from his father in 1987, and the original five hectares have been expanded through lease agreements to reach 17.5 hectares today, ten of which have been farmed organically for the past six years (which should soon lead to certification for the reds). The whites are elegant, mineral, pure, and delightfully consistent. They boast ideal ripeness—without excess—and great finesse. The reds are full-bodied and generous; they should be decanted or allowed to age. The rest of the lineup is of the same caliber, consistently offering good texture and fullness on the palate. The quality is exemplary and continues to improve. The newly introduced crémant stands out in its category. A sure bet!

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

There are many people with the surnames Quenard and Quénard in the village of Chignin, but Jean-François stands out. We commend the quality of his work and the consistency of his extensive lineup, which is refined each year with subtle touches and serves as a benchmark in Savoy’s ever-evolving wine landscape. The reds have improved significantly and are now of a very high standard. Rich in character and vinified using only native yeasts, the whites maintain a perfect balance on the palate. Looking toward the future, Jean-François Quénard has restructured his vineyard, which is currently in the process of obtaining organic certification. The estate has been officially passed on to his daughter Anne-Sophie, who studied in Beaune and Changins. Her first name now appears on the cellar and on the labels.
