✨ Technical Specifications
Crafted under the rigorous biodynamic principles of Stéphane and Bénédicte Tissot, this rosé is a vibrant expression of the Jura's unique terroir. Sourced from estate vineyards in Montigny-les-Arsures, where clay and limestone scree soils dominate, the wine is fermented using indigenous yeasts and bottled with minimal sulfur. Unlike mass-produced, pale rosés, Tissot's interpretation is deeply flavorful, textured, and energetic, capturing the wild berry, earthy, and mineral-driven nuances characteristic of the region's traditional red grapes. It represents a thoughtful, low-intervention approach to rosé that prioritizes terroir authenticity over commercial uniformity.
🍾 About the Producer
Established in 1962 by André and Mireille Tissot and taken over by their son Stéphane alongside his wife Bénédicte in 1990, Domaine Bénédicte & Stéphane Tissot is an iconic benchmark of the Jura region, located in the village of Montigny-lès-Arsures near Arbois, France. A relentless pioneer of organic and biodynamic viticulture, Stéphane transitioned the estate to biodynamics in the early 2000s, championing minimal-intervention cellar techniques and native yeast fermentations to reveal hyper-specific terroirs. The domaine produces an extraordinary array of wines spanning profound single-vineyard Chardonnays from sites like Clos de la Tour de Curon and La Mailloche, energetic Savagnins, traditional sous-voile Vin Jaune, vibrant reds from indigenous Trousseau and Poulsard, and exceptional Crémant du Jura such as Indigène. Celebrated for their mineral intensity, purity, and vibrant tension, the estate's artisanal bottlings have rightfully elevated the global reputation of Jura winemaking.
