Less interesting than mono Poulsard but also more friendly. Stew made of berries mix, leather, cranberry, mulberry, sour cherry and some subtle hints of chocolate. Still sophisticated, well-balanced, and round. Higher in body, alcohol and sugar (?). But neat.

Guillaume d'Angerville, current owner of famous Le Domaine Marquis d'Angerville from Bourgogne, decided to create a new project in Jura after tasting a single bottle - Tissot’s Chardonnay Arbois Les Bruyères 2005.
I tasted this bottle blind in a restaurant in Paris that I often go to. I always tell the sommelier to give me something blind and the only rule is that it has to be outside Burgundy. When he brought me this wine, I said, 'You forgot the rule, you brought me a wine from Burgundy.' And he said, 'I am afraid you're wrong.'
