Domaine la Grapp'A - Côtes du Jura - Red 2024
The 2024 Côtes du Jura Red from Domaine de la Grapp’A offers a free, fresh, and deeply lively expression of Jura reds, true to the artisanal and committed spirit of the estate. The bright ruby robe with violet reflections announces a wine of fruit and energy. The nose opens with crunchy aromas of fresh cherry, raspberry, and redcurrant, complemented by delicate peppery notes and a touch of light undergrowth. Upon aeration, more earthy and spicy nuances appear, evoking wet stone and the living soils of Jura. The whole is immediately readable, indulgent yet precise, without any heaviness. From the first sniff, the wine imposes a straight, sincere, and decidedly digestible style.
On the palate, the attack is supple and juicy, carried by a beautiful freshness that naturally structures the wine. The texture is fluid, slender, supported by fine and silky tannins that accompany the fruit without constraining it. Red fruit flavors dominate, extended by a discreet mineral framework and a spicy touch that adds relief. The natural vinification and measured aging fully respect the expression of the grape varieties and the vintage, allowing the wine to evolve with spontaneity and balance. The palate maintains great drinkability, with a sensation of controlled lightness and precision. The finish is clean, fresh, and persistent, marked by fruit and an elegant noble bitterness.
The 2024 Côtes du Jura Red is a convivial and table wine, designed to accompany simple and authentic cuisine. It pairs perfectly with charcuterie, roasted poultry, vegetarian dishes, or mushroom-based meals. Its freshness and suppleness also allow it to be served slightly chilled, for even more indulgence. Served around 13 to 14 °C, it fully reveals its brightness and energy. Best enjoyed young to appreciate its crunchy fruit, while it can also evolve over a few years towards spicier and more polished notes. It is a free, sincere, and incredibly lively Jura red, a signature of Domaine de la Grapp’A.
