NV Domaine Désiré Petit Crémant du Jura Brut, Jura, France
ABOUT THIS WINE
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
The Jura's vineyards cover an intermittent 80 kilometer strip of land between Burgundy and Switzerland. Living in Pupillin for more than 75 years, the Petit Family has long been producing Jura wines and even have winemaking roots that date back to 1657. It was the grand-father Désiré Petit who started the present estate in 1932. His two sons, Gérard and Marcel, took over the family estate in 1970 and increased it up to 27 hectares of vineyards by 2008. Today, Anne-Laure and Damien (Marcel's son) artfully craft great Jura wines from their conscientiously tended vines, their estate having received organic certification in 2022.
The slopes where the grapes are grown consist of a combination of limestone and clay from the Triassic and Jurassic periods. The average age of their vines is 24 years and they grow the 5 varietals that are found in the Jura; Ploussard, Trousseau, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Savagnin. At Domaine Désiré Petit, the grapes are harvested entirely by hand in September. All wines are aged in oak barrels.
