Producer

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.’

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.
