Description
WINEMAKER: Lucien & Vincent Aviet
REGION: Jura, FR
VARIETAL: Trousseau
VITICULTURE: Sustainable
A blend of the two parcels Rosière and Ruzard which also get bottled separately. Both are south-facing vineyards in Montigny-les-Arsures with similar terroir: light, gravelly soil with 'argile à chailles' (flinty clay) – Trousseau's most suited type of soil. Ruzard is higher up on the hill from Rosière and makes leaner wines compared to the deep and age-worthy Rosière bottlings. Altogether the vines range from 10 to 60yo.
The latest bottlings are much richer and less angular than in the past (global warming), this has a delicate, mid-red colour, refreshing red cherry and cranberry fruit with real purity of expression and mineral stamp.
The Aviet domain is just six hectares total while just 3% of their production sees export. A cult producer that we are truly lucky to see reach our shores.

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.
