Tasting Notes

Loved this fresh Jura red with its lightness of mouthfeel and colour; but oh so powerful within. From that wild forest and fresh cherry and strawberry smells and taste; and helped by the 12% alc., silky tannins and acidity. Read more in Importer's note. - Michael L

A deeper colour with a lovely bright hue. A wonderful sweet and fresh nose - very vibrant, wild and direct with cherry pip freshness and an attractive foresty, alpine lift - very impressive. Again a lovely mouthfeel, juicy and racy with lovely grip and balance - long finishing with a lingering sweetness and the desire for another glass..will keep well. - Importer Note

The first thing you notice is the name, Overnoy. This one is not to be confused with the legendary estate in Pupillin although Guillame's Grandfather was a brother to Pierre Overnoy and their Poulsard is propagated from cuttings from Arbois-Pupillin.

This estate is located in Orbagna, in the south of the Jura in the region of Sud Revermont. They are not too far away from Rotalier, home to the famous estates of Labet and Ganevat.

In fact it was Julien Labet who introduced me to Guillaume Overnoy in early 2017 when we visited him and had dinner afterwards. Julien had invited Guillaume to come for dinner and to meet us (I was invited along with Labet's Canadian importer that evening) and we tasted his excellent wines.

Guillaume came back to the family estate in 2013 and has been working full time since then. In 2014 he began conversion of the estate of 5.5 hectares to organic cultivation. They have all five Jura varieties planted and specialize in Trousseau which does particularly well in their area. The vines are grown mostly in Orbagna but they also have a single hectare further north in Cesancey. - Importer Note
