Benedicte & Stephane Tissot Poulsard Vieilles Vignes 2020 Red Wine – Old Vines Vintage

Discover a wine that embodies both tradition and innovation with the 2020 Poulsard from Bénédicte & Stéphane Tissot of Arbois, Jura, France. Crafted by visionary winemaker Stéphane Tissot—a third-generation vigneron committed to pushing boundaries—this red wine reflects a dedication to biodynamic practices and terroir-driven excellence.

Returning to the family domaine 18 years ago, Stéphane transformed 32 hectares of vineyards into a beacon of sustainable viticulture, prioritizing low yields and meticulous care for each plot’s unique character. The result? A Poulsard that captures the essence of Jura’s mineral-rich soils while showcasing Burgundian finesse. Expect vibrant red fruit flavors intertwined with a distinct stony minerality—a signature of this region’s semi-oxidized winemaking heritage.

This wine shines as a versatile companion to earthy dishes like mushroom risotto or charcuterie boards, its light-bodied structure and bright acidity making it perfect for warm evenings or casual gatherings. At 12% alcohol, it offers approachable elegance without overpowering subtleties.

Certified biodynamic and rooted in family tradition, this Poulsard stands out among Jura reds for its balance of innovation and authenticity. Whether you’re exploring organic wines or seeking a rare varietal experience, this bottling delivers exceptional value and complexity.

Pair it with your next meal or cellar it to savor its evolution—either way, you’ll taste the passion of a producer who redefines what Jura wines can achieve.
