When the first vintage of this wine was released, in 2012, it was momentous: The third-generation proprietor of one of Burgundy’s most prestigious estates, Domaine Marquis d’Angerville in Volnay, was debuting a Pinot Noir-based blend from vineyards he had acquired in the Jura’s Arbois AOC. This was big.
Now, it’s not that the Jura didn’t already have plenty of excited buzz around it, or its own legendary producers to celebrate—Jacques Puffeney, for example, or Stéphane Tissot, to name just two (more on both below). But for someone from the toniest precincts of Burgundy to not only acknowledge the Jura as a great terroir but to aspire to own land and make wine there, well, that took the excitement level and the international attention to another level. Before COVID-19 took restaurants from us, the wines of the Jura—reds and whites alike—were on the lips (and in the glasses) of every sommelier in town. Once mostly thought of as a source of oxidative whites made in a very similar manner to Sherry, the Jura, whose limestone-rich soils strongly resemble those of Burgundy, is home to a thrilling range of whites and reds that rival those of Burgundy. Minerality, aromatics, finesse…these are the qualities that first attracted Guillaume d’Angerville to Arbois, and this polished and exquisitely aromatic red has become a regional reference point in relatively short order. If you’re not already on the Jura train, “Trois Cépages” is here to welcome you aboard in high style. Don’t miss this!
