✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted by the visionary Stéphane Tissot, the '10 Ans d'Age' is a masterclass in the traditional oxidative winemaking of the Jura. This extraordinary dry white wine is made entirely from Savagnin grapes and undergoes an astonishing ten years of aging 'sous voile' (under a veil of flor yeast) in neutral oak casks without any topping up. This prolonged contact with the yeast veil—nearly four years longer than the legal requirement for Vin Jaune—results in a wine of breathtaking complexity, power, and depth. It pays homage to the historic, patient cellaring traditions of Montigny-les-Arsures, capturing the essence of the region's blue marl and limestone soils through an intense aromatic profile of toasted walnuts, exotic curry spices, dried stone fruits, and a piercing, saline minerality.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1962 by André and Mireille Tissot in Montigny-lès-Arsures, Domaine Tissot underwent an epochal transformation when Stéphane and Bénédicte Tissot assumed leadership in 1990. Propelling Jura winemaking into global reverence, they eliminated synthetic interventions, attaining organic certification in 1999 and full Demeter biodynamic status in 2004 across roughly 35 to 50 hectares. The estate encompasses preeminent micro-terroirs—notably Les Bruyères, La Mailloche, En Barberon, and Curon—defined by diverse Jurassic limestones and distinctive blue, grey, and red marls situated under continental montane influences. Stéphane champions hyper-parcel vinification using indigenous yeasts, amphorae, minimal sulfur, and unadulterated parcel identity. Tissot's extensive repertoire spans thrillingly chiseled non-oxidative ouillé bottlings like Chardonnay Clos de la Tour de Curon and Les Bruyères, transcendent traditional sous voile expressions, and profound benchmarks of Vin Jaune, culminating in an unyielding masterclass of geological transparency.
