Description

Ganevat needs no introduction at this point. But this cuvée is a different side of the man. Named after his grandfather Julien, it's a négociant wine rather than an estate bottling, sourced from purchased Pinot Noir fruit grown on 1977-planted clay and limestone soils in the southern Côtes du Jura.

"L'enfant terrible du Sud" is an apt description of what's in the bottle. Where Ganevat's estate wines are structured, serious, and built for the cellar, this is lighter, more playful, and meant to be enjoyed sooner. Indigenous yeasts, minimal intervention, fruit infusion over extraction. At just 11.5% alcohol, it barely whispers.

Fresh morello cherry and raspberry, dried flowers, delicate spice. Supple and silky on the palate with real freshness driving it. This is Jura Pinot at its most approachable, made by someone who could make it more complicated but chose not to.

A lovely, honest wine. Very much in the spirit of its namesake.

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.

No, feel free to mix it up! There is no minimum requirement. You can order wines in any quantity or combination, 1 or 50+ bottles.

No, all prices are set at the full discounted dozen rate already.

Most wine retailers list at a single-bottle price and then discount 10–15% when you buy six or twelve. We've taken the opposite approach. Since the overwhelming majority of our orders are already 6 bottles or more, our list price is set for the case buyer from the start. There's no inflated single-bottle price to discount down from.

What that means for you:

- One price, same for everyone — no minimum to hit to unlock the best rate
- No mixed-six gymnastics to qualify for a discount
- Our single-bottle price is typically at or below a traditional retailer's by-the-dozen rate

Put simply: the box discount is already baked into the price.

**And if you find it cheaper elsewhere?** Let us know. If the same wine is available at a lower price at another retailer (including at their mixed-six or by-the-dozen rate) we're happy to match it.

If you can't add more wine to your cart it means we are low on stock of that wine. For example, if you are only able to 3 bottles and no more that means we only have 3 bottles left of that wine. If it's a must have, please contact us and we may be able to order more in for you.
