Domaine Pignier
Gamay blanc "En Tappe"

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.

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

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.

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.
