Tasting Notes
This is the second special release that was a massive success with the first release almost a decade ago. The late great whisky producer in Burgundy, Michel Couvreur, has made some fine whiskies aged in Tissot's Vin Jaune barrels and this wine reverses the concept. Fine Vin Jaune aged in whiskey barrels for almost 7 years. The Vin Jaune is so powerful that the nuances of whisky only adds a gentle facet. - Importer Note
You won't find a producer more passionate about the Jura region and its wines than Stéphane Tissot.
Founded in the 1960s, the Domaine consists of 32 hectares spread across Arbois and the Cotes du Jura. All of the vineyards are farmed biodynamically, reflecting Stéphane's belief in the benefits of natural processes. Combined with his ruthless yield reduction philosophy and 'small batch' approach to winemaking, the wines produced are some of the most pure, serious and exciting expressions of the Jura.
In the winery, everything is carried out naturally with little to no sulphur used. Stéphane is constantly experimenting and obsessively seeking improvements to both viticulture and vinification, striving to capture the greatest expression of his vineyards in every glass. His passion is evident. And so to the quality of his wines, which are leading the charge in the Jura revolution.
