Description
Jura Biodynamic Blanc de Blancs Aged 52 Months on Lees
Handcrafted in France’s Jura region by biodynamic pioneers Bénédicte & Stéphane Tissot, this non-vintage Chardonnay showcases oxidative elegance perfected through extended sur lie aging. With 12.5% ABV and zero added sugar (dosage), it offers a sophisticated alternative to traditional Champagne-method sparklings.
Tasting Profile
Expect layered notes of preserved lemon curd, burnt almond paste, and wet limestone accented by subtle vanilla from French oak barrels. The 52-month lees contact creates a creamy mouthfeel with vibrant acidity—a rare balance achieved through biodynamic vineyard practices that enhance terroir expression without synthetic inputs.
Artisan Craftsmanship
Fermented entirely in oak (no stainless steel), this blanc de blancs benefits from malolactic conversion that softens its bright acidity into a velvety texture. Each disgorgement is timed to preserve optimal balance between oxidative complexity and fresh citrus vitality—a hallmark of Jura’s traditional winemaking heritage.
Perfect as an aperitif or pairing with aged cheeses/foie gras, this limited-production wine reflects Tissot’s commitment to sustainable viticulture certified since 2008. Note: Vintage year may vary based on optimal harvest conditions; in-store availability subject to change.
