✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Crafted by the iconoclastic Jean-Marie Guffens, 'Dernier Jus' (translating to 'The Last Juice') is a testament to his legendary, rule-breaking approach to winemaking in Burgundy. This rare cuvée is typically born from the very last press fractions or extremely late-harvested Chardonnay grapes. While conventional wisdom often dismisses the final pressings as too phenolic or heavy, Guffens utilizes his masterly understanding of lees contact and barrel fermentation to transform this highly concentrated juice into a white wine of remarkable texture, power, and unexpected mineral tension, completely redefining what is possible outside of standard appellation boundaries.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Domaine Guffens-Heynen blev grundlagt i 1979 af det belgiske ægtepar Jean-Marie Guffens og Lydie Heynen og har hjemme i den maleriske landsby Vergisson i Mâconnais i Bourgogne. Jean-Marie Guffens er bredt anerkendt som en revolutionerende visionær, der forvandlede det sydlige Bourgognes omdømme gennem et kompromisløst markarbejde, streng manuel selektering i flere omgange ('tries') under høsten og et præcist, minimalistisk arbejde i vinkælderen. Vingården er verdenskendt for at skabe ekstraordinært koncentrerede, mineralske og lagringsværdige hvide bourgogner fra ikoniske lieu-dits som En Chavigne og La Roche i Pouilly-Fuissé samt Mâcon-Pierreclos – vine, der jævnligt måler sig med de ypperste Grand Crus fra Côte de Beaune.
