DOMAINE DES MARNES BLANCHES

White Wine

Domaine des Marnes Blanches, Chardonnay 'En Levrette' 2020

Place: Jura, France

Grape: Chardonnay

Vibe: Classic, textural

Topped up Chardy from an older vine site planted on soils that are incredibly rich in marine life fossils. My mouth is already doing that popping candy thing. Old oak for 18 months aiding the textural development. Salty is an understatement, or maybe an underappreciation of what's happening here. The type of wine that finds its way home with me. ABV: 13.5%

Regular price £47.10

Taxes included

Pauline and Géraud are both Jura natives and got started young in their winemaking careers, hanging out in the vines as children. They met while studying in Dijon and created Domaine des Marnes Blanches upon their return to the Jura in 2006. Organic from the outset, they’ve built up their holdings to twelve hectares spread across four villages. Fermentation takes place with wild yeasts, and sulfur use is minimal for the whites, non-existent for the reds. After they lost 90% of their yields to frost in 2017, Géraud also set up a micro-brewery, which is a handy little side income in years where the weather sucks (looking at you, 2021).
