Grands Teppes - Côtes du Jura - White - 75cL - Anne and Jean-Francois GANEVAT - 2020

Producer: Anne and Jean-Francois GANEVAT | Region: Jura | Grape variety: Chardonnay | Vintage: 2020 | Color: White | Quantity: 75cL Grands Teppes 2020 is a wine with a clear, bright, golden yellow color, with a beautiful visual density that announces a wine of substance. The nose is complex and elegant, opening with notes of ripe white fruits (pear, apple, quince), candied citrus, yellow flowers and dried fruits (almond, fresh hazelnut). Upon aeration, the wine reveals mineral touches (chalk, flint) and a slight spicy touch. The palate is ample, generous, and structured. It combines beautiful fruit maturity with a fine, taut acidity. The texture is silky but carried by a straightforward minerality and a salinity that prolongs the finish. This wine will pair perfectly with a creamy mushroom risotto or pan-fried scallops. DOMAIN The Anne and Jean-François Ganevat estate, located in Cerdon in the Jura region, is a leading name in the world of natural wines. Founded in the 1990s, the estate is now recognized for its respectful approach to the terroir and its ability to produce wines of great finesse, characterized by their purity and authenticity. The Ganevats have chosen to cultivate their vines biodynamically, a viticulture method that prioritizes the natural balance of the ecosystem. Their work in the cellar is equally respectful, with minimal vinification and reduced use of sulfur. Each wine from the estate thus reflects the pure expression of the Jura terroir, with particular attention paid to the precision and complexity of the vintages. The estate is particularly known for its white wines made from indigenous grape varieties such as Chardonnay and Savagnin, but it also produces red wines (primarily Pinot Noir and Trousseau) as well as macerated wines. The vintages are often characterized by brilliant freshness, marked minerality, and good aging potential. Anne and Jean-François Ganevat are passionate artisans, committed to preserving their terroir while producing wines that surprise and excite. The estate remains a benchmark for lovers of natural, quality wines, seeking cuvées that are both complex and accessible.
