Stéphane Tissot is a leading producer in the Jura, known for his dedication to biodynamic farming and terroir-focused winemaking. His Chardonnay 2020, sourced from limestone and marl soils, is a precise and unembellished expression of the varietal. Fermented with natural yeasts and aged in a mix of barrels and foudres, it balances freshness with texture. Bright citrus, crisp apple, and white floral notes lead to a saline, mineral-driven finish, reflecting the Jura’s distinct terroir. A pure, energetic wine with remarkable clarity and tension.
