Description
APPELLATION : COTES DU JURA
   
Cuvée :  "Vigne des Voises " is a single vineyard located in Buvilly, between Arbois and Poligny, capital of production of the famous "Comté" cheese. 
   
Kind of soil : Calcareous gravels and marl of the Lower Bajocian (Lias and Trias). The vine has deep roots which stay fresh and enjoys a good mineral nutrition, but the warm gravels on the soil insure a nice maturity for the grapes.
   
Exposure : Located on a gently sloping hillside, facing to South, the "Vigne des Voises" enjoys fully the sunshine, sometimes scorching during summer in this semi-continental climate.
   
Average age of the vine : 45 y.o.
   
Grape variety : 100 % Chardonnay
   
Pruning  : "En arcure" (= arch), a local pruning.
   
Yield : 45 hl/ha
   
Vineyard management : Ploughing once or twice per year. Rational and sustainable control against  fungal diseases (mildew and oidium only). No pestcides, no anti-rot traitement.
   
Harvest : Hand harvested
   
Vinification : Alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation (100% completed) are spontaneous, made by the natural floras of the grapes and of the cellar. No selected yeast or bacteria, no enzyme and no activator. The whole vinification takes place into oak barrels, most of them are 5 to 6 wines old. 25% of more recent barrels. No new barrel. Aged on the lees of fermentations with regular topping-up, for 22 months.
   
Bottling : No finning. Bottled at the domaine, by ourselves.
