Benedicte and Stéphane TISSOT - Crémant du Jura - Blanc de Noirs
Domaine Stéphane Tissot has become an essential reference for Jura wines for years now. Maurice Tissot, André Tissot's father and Stéphane's grandfather, owned 3 hectares of vines (vinified in a cooperative) and 25 hectares of farmland. In 1956, he decided to plant vines for each of his four sons: Jacques, Jean-Louis, Daniel and André. The latter inherited 38 ares, which would become the André and Mireille Tissot estate, now run by their son Stéphane. Stéphane Tissot is a rebellious spirit who appropriates traditions while sublimating them. After studying Viticulture/Oenology, he joined his father at the family estate in 1989. He gradually took over the management of the estate and adopted organic farming in 1999, then switched to biodynamics in 2004. Today, they own 43 hectares planted with classic Jura grape varieties: Savagnin, Chardonnay, Poulsard, Trousseau and Pinot Noir.
This Crémant du Jura is a Blanc de Noirs made from the Pinot Noir grape variety, from limestone soils. It is aged in barrels and produced using the traditional method. It was disgorged in November 2024 and is bottled without dosage .
Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
