Description
WINEMAKER: Éric Goypieron
REGION: Jura, FR
VARIETAL: Chardonnay
VITICULTURE: Organic
"The juice and must of grapes are reduced in half by boiling (3-4 days operation), and the resulting liquid is then fortified with brandy. Once the "wine" reaches 16% alcohol by volume it is placed in oak casks to age for 1 to 3 years, sometime more. There is no fermentation process. The end result is a Vin doux Naturel that is rich and unctuous." - 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."

A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
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.
