Tasting Notes

Once consumed by women during childbirth for its energizing properties due to its high sugar content, straw wine has today become a legendary product of the Jura region. Harvested at optimal ripeness from grapes dried on racks or straw, this nectar is best enjoyed chilled. The attack is mellow, and a symphony of powerful yet subtle aromas merge together. Dried and candied fruits such as fig, dried apricot, and prune blend with toasted or roasted notes.

The Jura wine region, nestled between Burgundy and Switzerland in eastern France, is renowned for its unique wines and ancient winemaking traditions. Despite its small size, Jura boasts a diverse range of wines that reflect its distinctive terroir and climate, influenced by its limestone-rich soils and cool temperatures.

Jura is best known for its indigenous grape varieties, including Savagnin, Trousseau, and Poulsard, alongside more familiar Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The region produces a wide array of styles, from crisp and mineral-driven whites to light and earthy reds. Its most iconic wine, Vin Jaune (Yellow Wine), is made from Savagnin and aged under a layer of yeast in barrels for at least six years, developing complex nutty and oxidative notes.

The sparkling Crémant du Jura and the sweet Vin de Paille (Straw Wine) add to the region's diverse offerings, making it a haven for wine enthusiasts seeking something distinct. Jura’s wines pair beautifully with local cuisine, such as Comté cheese, further highlighting the region’s deep culinary ties.

With its combination of heritage, innovation, and unique flavours, Jura offers a truly memorable wine experience.
