2020 Ganevat Cotes du Jura Les Grands Teppes Vieilles Vignes Chardonnay

This Côtes du Jura Chardonnay from Domaine Jean-François Ganevat represents one of the final vintages from century-old vines planted in 1919 at the Les Grands Teppes plot in Vercia, before replantation. The estate, family-owned since 1650 and located in La Combe de Rotalier, is managed by Jean-François Ganevat who produces around 40 different cuvées expressing terroir and stylistic diversity. Grapes are grown on gravel and red marl soils, vinified with indigenous yeasts without sulfur additions, and aged for 48 months on lees in demi-muids before being bottled unfined and unfiltered.
