"Located from the bottom of Château-Chalon, he farmed everything himself. Fermentation in tank, then 10 month on older oak. Manual Harvest, no SO2." - thanks Paul!
"After quitting his day job at 40 years old, Éric Goypieron bought a house and small winery just near Château-Chalon. After working alongside the iconic Jacques Puffenay and good friend Michel Gahier, he's now a one-man show doing everything himself, farming his two hectares entirely organically and making the most natural wine possible - zero adds, zero sulphur. Éric has also rejected the restrictive Jura appellation, choosing to bottle 'Vin de France' and work just outside the rules."
