What a beautiful and sophisticated wine. Blood sausages, barberry, rhubarb and red flowers. Multilayered, juicy and almost perfectly balanced. Flavourful and sexy.

What an incredible take on Poulsard. Somewhat reminds me of Pofadder by Sadie Family. Clean, sophisticated, multilayered and precise. Barberry, blood, red flowers, salami, and rhubarb. Juicy, almost perfectly balanced, with a nice and flavourful finish of blood-soaked barberry. Sexy stuff.

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.'
