Tasting Notes
I love this producer! The Jensillard is a non-oxidative style of Jura Savagnin. The warmth of the 2020 vintage shows through in the riper, more floral fruit profile and softer acidity yet it still maintains the signature saline minerality known to this producer and region. Let the wine open and come up to temperature, and you’ll be rewarded with a defined chalky mouthfeel and more structure in general. - Chris L
Pauline and Geraud Fromont began Domaine des Marnes Blanches in 2006. Their certified organic vineyards are located in the Jura's Sud Revermont region, which is also home to a lot of the Jura's natural wine producers (including Ganevat). The estate is 10 hectares planted on white marl soils, as the domaine's name suggests. They produce 2 main styles of wine; topped up (ouille) and oxidative (sous voile) for which they have 2 different cellars to mature the wines in their ideal conditions. They are young and energetic producers which is reflected in their living wines. A producer fit for every wine lovers table and one to watch into the future. - Chris L
