Notes from Domaine Pignier:
"Our wine estate extends over the hillsides of the small Jura village of Montaigu, the cradle of our family for 7 generations.
Our plots benefit from favorable conditions for growing vines thanks to the geological and meteorological conditions specific to the typical remote Jura regions. There are 13 hectares of vines in AOC COTES DU JURA which are planted on the hillsides of the two remote valleys which form the foothills of our commune.
Marls from the Lias and Trias give our wines the typicality of the Jura terroir from 3 main localities: en Boivin, Derrière la Ville, les Gauthières.
Complantation of Gamay Blanc (former name of Chardonnay), Poulsard and Savagnin aged in oak barrels for 6 months without added S02. Complantation means planting side by side, an old viticultural method where all the grape varieties were planted side by side in the same plot".
