Domaine de Montbourgeau is a family-run estate in the Jura region, where brothers César and Baptiste Dériaux now lead the winemaking efforts. They use traditional, organic viticulture to tend their nine hectares of vineyards, which include the specific parcel that produces the Clos des Fraisiers. The red Côtes du Jura Poulsard from this vineyard is classified under the regional appellation because the home appellation of L'Étoile is reserved for white wines.
