Description
WINEMAKER: Jean & Chantal Berthet-Bondet
REGION: Jura, FR
VARIETY: Savagnin
VITICULTURE: Organic
The Côtes du Jura L’Acacia is 100% Savagnin, this time from marl soils from the Triassic period. Grapes are hand harvested, pressed and fermented in stainless steel before 60% is moved to acacia barrels and 40% to oak barrels for 22 months maturation. This cuvee is full of white flowers and a slightly smoky, woody note. On the palate, the wine is round with spicy notes, delicate oak and good length. Absolutely delicious. Serve with seafood or white meat.
Domaine Berthet-Bondet was established in 1984 when Jean and Chantal Berthet-Bondet bought an old domaine that had not been producing for over 50 years, bringing with it 3 hectares of old vines. Previous to this, Jean had worked for a year with Domaine Macle, the leading producer in Château-Chalon, before deciding to make the town their home. The Berthet-Bondets also purchased an old priory house perched right at the back of the village, with spectacular views down over Château-Chalon and its vineyards. Here, Jean and Chantal built a small cuverie and extended the original underground cellars to include a well-ventilated cellar ideal for the production of sous-voile wines such as Château-Chalon.

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.
