The Jura region of France has to be one of the most exciting wine-producing regions in the world. With its proximity to the Alps - and with the phenomenal soils and crisp, alpine breezes which typify the vineyards of the area - the winemakers of Jura have always known that they have access to something truly special. Thanks to the efforts of wineries like Domaine Pignier, now in their seventh generation of family ownership, the rest of the world is able to explore the produce of this truly remarkable corner of the world.
Domaine Pignier stands out from the Jura crowd in no shortage of ways. Perhaps most potently, however, due to the fact that this beautiful winery marries diehard traditionalism with organic and biodynamic viticultural techniques, designed to truly harness the purity of their flawless terroir. This dedication to sustainability and forward-thinking winemaking methods is impressive, considering that the family operation spreads across four centuries, yet also completely logical; with access to such amazing land, why would you want to meddle with what nature provides? The results, of course, are nothing short of spectacular, and Domaine Pignier consistently amazes with the peerless quality of their produce.
Very tense and tight to start, this unfurls into something beautiful. Very refreshing and with a pleasant creaminess, this is mouthwateringly fresh. Think lime, hazelnuts, toast and a touch of salt. Rivals Champagne but at half the price.
