Chardonnay 2018 - Domaine Fumey Chatelain - Arbois

Est une cuvée de Chardonnay cultivé en biological farming very close to#039;Arbois in the Jura. Les raisins fermentent à partir de levures indigènes uniquement, en cuve inox puis le vin est élevé pendant 24 mois en cuve inox et vieux foudres.

Ce Chardonnay est typique de ceux que l'on retrouve dans le Jura with his notes fraiches et mentholées. En bouche il est fruité, sur la pomme verte mais sans exubérance, avec un bel équilibre entre fgreedy and fatThe wood is well melted.

En hiver on l'accordera à des plats de fromage comme la raclette ou une fondue jurassienne, aux beaux jours il s'associera à merveilles avec les asperges.

Domaine Fumey Chatelain - Adeline Chatelain and Raphaël Fumey

Adeline and Raphaël's winegrowing adventure began in the middle of the 1980s with only 56 ares of vines that they harvested and sold but did not vinify at the time. The terrible frost in the spring of 1991, which devastated 95% of the Jura vineyards, left Adeline and Raphaël with few grapes, so they decided to make their own wine and thus sign their first vintage.

The first vintages were made left and right, borrowing cellars and unused barrels from other winegrowers in the Raphaël family, until in 1999 they acquired a ruined farmhouse in Montigny-lès-ArsuresThey renovated and transformed it to accommodate their family and their winery.

The domain now extends over 17 hectares and their son Marin, after having made wine several times in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, joined them. The vines are cultivated with respect for the environment and their rigorous work in the vineyard allows them to vinify the wines naturally.
