Tasting Notes
Shaped from a blend of Jura grape varieties and crafted using traditional methods, Domaine des Cavarodes Mousseux La Bulette NV delivers a lively and characterful expression. The bouquet introduces vibrant notes of orchard fruits, citrus peel, and wildflowers, enhanced by a whisper of brioche and earthy undertones. On the palate, juicy apple, tangy grapefruit, and subtle red berries are balanced by a gentle sparkle and a refreshing acidity. The finish is bright and playful, leaving lingering hints of zesty lemon and a touch of minerality. - Peter L
Etienne Thiebaud commenced making his own wine at Domaine des Cavarodes in the village of Cramans in the northern part of the Jura in 2007. He makes wines of amazing purity which reflect the terroir from which they come on either side of the Loue River and across to Arbois.
He only has 4.5 hectares of vines (ranging in age from 15 to 115 years old) which he farms organically but produces many cuvees from these small holdings. The wines are made as naturally as possible with the reds undergoing semi-carbonic maceration following careful de-stemming and maturation in old barrels.
Key vineyards are Lumachelles which is in the commune of Mouchard just north of Arbois (where he has Chardonnay and Trousseau), Guille Bouton in Arbois (where he has Chardonnay) and Les Messagelins which is also in Arbois (where he has Trousseau). - Importer Note
