2021 Arnaud et Malou Greiner Le Précieux
Description
WINEMAKER: Arnaud & Malou Greiner
REGION: Jura, FR
VARIETY: Melon à Queue Rouge, Savagnin
VITICULTURE: Certified Organic
The unique cuvée we have from Arnaud is Le Précieux, from the frost-ravaged 2021 vintage. As is usual with his wines the appellation is Vin d France but the wine is a blend of the grapes that would usually make Les Vieilles Gallines (Melon le Queue Rouge) and Lavenard (Savagnin). It is a long time since we have had any white wines from Arnaud so we’re happy to settle for this precious cuvée.
Arnaud Greiner is a talented and passionate young man who has been working for other Jura producers for many years. He has also been making his own wine and has just made his second commercial release (we received a small supply of his first release in 2018). We are delighted that he has agreed to supply us with some of his miniscule production. Arnaud and his partner Malou have a number of very small parcels of vines near the village of Liesle which add up to the grand total of a little less than one hectare. Each of the plots sit in a forest setting far from an agricultural sprays from the farms around the area. Arnaud and Malou are certified organic by Ecocert. They do not use any sulphites in the production of their lovely wines. The wine labels are designed by the delightful Cecile Mouget who also acts as the translator for us.

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.
