2020 Cabaret des Oiseaux Suspendue
Description
WINEMAKER: Jude & Lucile Spaety
REGION: Jura, FR
VARIETY: Savagnin
VITICULTURE: Organic
Hand harvested and fermented with whole bunches in fibreglass fermenter for 15 days then pressed out into old burgundy barrels for the remainder of the fermentation. Bottled without filtering or fining and no sulfur at any stage. It has a nice subtlety on the palate. Flowing and never blocky. The tannin structure almost sticking to the flavours. Hazelnut, turning pineapple, orange zest and bergamot tea with that Jurassic acidity wrapping it all up in a comfy blanket. Absolutely delicious!
Domaine Cabaret des Oiseaux is the creation of Jude and Lucile Spaety, both agricultural engineers. Jude worked for Celine from le Dolomies and this is how I was introduced to this exciting new producer located in Saint-Lothain since 2017. Cabaret des Oiseaux is named after a plant that grows in their vineyards and which serves as a watering hole for the birds. Jude and Lucile cultivate two hectares of Pinot Noir, Poulsard, Trousseau, Chardonnay and Savagnin. They work their vineyards organically using animal traction and fermented plant extracts instead of copper and sulfur. No SO2 or additives of any kind are used in the cellar. Fermentations are spontaneous from indigenous yeast.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
