Description

Still white wine from Arbois, in Jura, France, 13.5% ABV, produced by Michel Gahier. 100% Chardonnay, 2022 vintage. A wine that embodies the essence of the Jura, with a Chardonnay that expresses all the minerality and complexity of the terroir. Michel Gahier uses biodynamic methods in managing his vineyards, so no chemicals, poisons, or artificial fertilizers are used. The grapes for this wine are also harvested by hand and aged in old wood so that the wine can "breathe" but no new oak flavors dominate. Subtle floral and fruity notes, followed by spicy nuances. Deep straw yellow. Flavors of honey, pear, and almond abound, and a long, lingering minerality.

From this winery
  • Hectares: 6
Michel Gahier lives in the centre of the village of Montigny-les-Arsures which lies near the central town of Arbois. The reason this is significant is that Montigny is regarded as the finest terroir for the Trousseau grape in the Jura.

Michel is a quiet but talented vigneron who tends his vines meticulously and watches carefully over his wines as they are maturing. He likes to make his wine using the traditional techniques of the Jura.

Michel tends 6 hectares of vines of which 3 hectares are given over to Trousseau and the remainder is split between Chardonnay and Savagnin.
