Domaine des Marnes Blanches Crémant du Jura Réserve NV
This 100% Chardonnay Methode Traditionelle is so elegant and harmonious. With citrus notes, a gentle nuttiness and creamy texture, it has a lengthy fresh, dry finish. It was aged in barrel and then on lees in bottle for a full two years.
Tucked up between Burgundy and the Alps, Jura is one of those regions that the wine world gets very excited about, and Domaine des Marnes Blanches are at the peak of that excitement. Géraud and Pauline Fromont leapt into the consciousness of wine lovers when they started Domaine des Marnes Blanches in 2006. They have 4 vineyards totalling 12 hectares on limestone/clay and red marl soils where they grow Chardonnay, Savagnin, Poulsard, Pinot Noir and Trousseau using organic practices. As well as traditional oxidative wine styles, they have keenly followed a Burgundian approach of the separate vinification and bottling of specific sites to make ‘topped up’ wines.
