Saldusis saldus
The wine is made from grapes that are dried for 3 months before fermentation until most of the accumulated water evaporates. When the alcohol level in the wine reaches 15 - 16 ° during fermentation, the fermentation stops naturally. The wine is then matured for 3 years in oak barrels.The amber wine has an intense aroma of prunes, figs and quinces. A mouth-watering and concentrated taste is given to the freshness, which is given the sweetness of sugary quince acid.
Serve at 10-12 °C with foie gras, desserts with chocolate or blue cheese.
Domaine Rolet was founded in 1942 by Désiré Rolet before being passed on to his children. Today, the Domaine's vines average 45 years old and span 65ha across the Jura region of Eastern France, with vineyards in the AOCs of Arbois, Cotes du Jura, l'Etoile, and Chateau-Chalon.Classic Jura varieties are planted across steep slopes on appropriate soils; Chardonnay (light marls), Savagnin (grey marls), Poulsard (red & blue marls), Trousseau (heavy gravels) and Pinot Noir (light marls). Vines are tended through organic farming practices, and hand-harvested each year producing yields between 15-50 hl. Further sorting ensures that only the best quality grapes are seen through to barrel. Most wines are aged for around 18 months in oak, replacing a quarter of their barrels each year.The resulting wines have gained the Domaine a reputation for excellence with wine professionals and drinkers alike with their purity and concentration.
