About The Wine
The Anne & Jean Francois Ganevat Les Cedres Cotes du Jura is more of a "traditional" style of Chardonnay but still with the Ganevat stamp on it.
The grapes are harvested from vineyards over ancient marine limestone, and the vines themselves are quite old, at around 80 years of age. The wine is fermented in large, "demi-muids" which have already seen several vintages, so there is little oak presence in the finished wine. Citrus and stone fruit predominate, and acidity is high but balanced, giving the wine amazing energy.
This is yet another rare and delicious Ganevat wine.
About Jean Francois Ganevat
Jean Francois Ganevat is one of the benchmark vignerons of the Jura region.
With the wisdom of generations of grape-growing knowledge coursing through his veins and the tutelage of his Burgundian legend mentor Jean-Marc Morey at front of mind, 'Fanfan' has taken his family Domaine to mythical status during his tenure as proprietor.
These wines are coveted the world over for their otherworldly clarity and precision. They are vivid and vibrant and made in painfully small quantities. They stand as a beacon of quality and craftsmanship in the natural wine world.
If you are lucky enough to sample one of his cuveés, it's likely to be an experience you will not soon forget.
