Red dry
The vines grow in the communes of Arbois and Montigny. The soil consists of red marble and gravel. The harvest is done by hand to ensure maximum ripeness and quality of the grapes. The wine is aged for over 20 months in oak — barrique for the 'Trousseau' and barrels for the 'Pinot Noir'.
A wine with aromas of liquorice, strawberries, raspberries and blueberries, subtle and with soft tannins. Its finish is long-lasting and elegant.
Serve at 15–16 °C with chicken breast, tuna steak or duck dishes.
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.
