Domaine Pignier Gamay blanc "En Tappe" 2022 bottle 75cl

bottle 75cl: 25,83 €bottle 75cl

The estate is as traditional (confiscated from the Carthusian monks during the Revolution and sold as 'national property' to the Pignier family in 1794) as it is avant-garde (biodynamic cultivation since 1998, Demeter certification since 2003). The vineyard (14 hectares in the commune of Montaigu) stretches over clay, limestone and marl soils, planted with red grape varieties (mainly Trousseau and a little Poulsard) on the southern exposures, and white grape varieties (Chardonnay and Gamay Blanc) on the north/north-east exposures. The entire range is a perfect expression of the purity, spontaneity and authenticity that are the hallmarks of Jura wines. Rated two stars in the Revue du Vin de France's 2024 guide.

The Gamay blanc, an old strain of Chardonnay, is matured for 18 months in barrels, with regular topping up for more fruit and freshness.

    This Sauvageon, a pure Savagnin, is fermented and matured in ovoid concrete vats, with regular topping up for more fruit and freshness.

    The 2022 vintage in the press:

    La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 92/100 “The Sauvageon Savagnin is still youthful, but also offers a magnificent combination of fruit (softness of touch and richness of flavor) and vivacity.”

    Vinous (Nicolas Greinacher - August 2024): 91/100 “Fermented and aged for a year in concrete eggs, the 2022 Blanc Côtes du Jura Sauvageon is 14% alcohol. Lemon flesh, yellow apple, honeysuckle and wet stone all come to the fore. Medium to full-bodied and generous, the 2022 awakens the palate with a solid concentration of flavors and a juicy finish. This is a muscular Savagnin with plenty of substance."

    The Savagnin sous voile is matured in barrels for 60 months, without topping up, to develop the nutty, rancio aromas typical of Jura yellow wines.

    The 2018 vintage in the press:

    La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 93/100 “Delicate, right down to its smoky, peaty aromas, endowed with superior tonicity.”

    Vinous (Nicolas Greinacher - August 2024): 91/100 “The 2018 Savagnin Côtes du Jura Sous Voile has been aged under oxidation for five years and is 15% alcohol.A slight movement of the glass reveals finely defined aromas of saffron, walnut, lemon peel powder, hay and crushed apple.On the palate, the 2018 shows remarkable elegance and the high alcohol is perfectly integrated.Complex and round, this is a tasty Savagnin with class and finesse.”

    Les Gauthières is the estate's great red cuvée (focusing on black cherry in 2022), selected from a plot planted as in the past with trousseau à la dame, trousseau noir, enfariné and savagnin jaune, matured for 12 months in barrels.

    The 2022 vintage in the press:

    La Revue du Vin de France (Guide 2025): 92/100 “the Les Gauthières trousseau is an artist at the dawn of his career, well in line with previous vintages of this flagship cuvée for the estate and for the grape variety.”

    Vinous (Nicolas Greinacher - August 2024): 94/100 “The Trousseau Côtes du Jura Les Gauthières 2022 comes from the locality of the same name. It bursts from the glass with pronounced aromas of licorice, loamy earth, crushed violets and red and black plums. The 2022 grazes the palate with a high concentration of flavors and remarkable intensity, concluding with tension on a savory finish - a true triumph.”
