Chardonnay vines planted back in 1966 on a bed of limestone and marnes - a true Jura classic. The nose leans into richness with a warmth that wraps you in layers of ripe melon, roasted pineapple, and citrus zest, all cushioned by a creamy undertone. It’s fruit-forward but with an edge of restraint. On the palate, it’s rounded and soft-spoken, with a brightness that lifts the fruit and keeps things lively. The long mineral finish speaks to the roots of those old vines, grounding all that richness with a firm Jura backbone.

This is a medium bodied natural white wine.

About Domaine de la Renardière

The village of Pupillin plays host to Domaine de la Renardière, where Jean-Michel Petit quietly crafts some of Jura’s finest wines. Since establishing the domaine in 1990, Jean-Michel has built his 7.5 hectares into a haven for both red and white varietals, with a lineup of equal parts red (Pinot Noir, Poulsard, Trousseau) and white (mostly Chardonnay with a bit of Savagnin). Jean-Michel has been farming organically since 2003, earning full certification in 2012 - an important commitment to the vineyard. In the cellar, he keeps things rooted in tradition: native yeasts kickstart fermentation and sulfur is only used sparingly when needed, and élevage takes place in a mix of foudres for reds and a blend of older barriques and foudres for whites. The result? Wines that are vibrant, soulful, and unmistakably Jura.
