Mouillard ‘Floral’ Jura 2020

750ml

Sale price$40.00

Mouillard’s ‘Floral’ comes from 90% Chardonnay and 10% Savagnin, the aromatic and structured grape variety used for Vin Jaune. Floral is a local designation for a Vin Ouillé; that is, a wine that is fully topped up to the eye (ouillé) of the barrel and not made in an oxidative style. This wine is a brilliant, rich, mineral white wine that is gold in color with aromas of citrus, pear, green apple, and a hint of butter. The complexity and cut on the palate follows with a truly Jura-esque minerality on the finish. Pairs well with seafood, fish, hors d’oeuvres, and white meats.

Jean-Luc Mouillard

Jean-Luc Mouillard's winery is in the picturesque village of Mantry in the Jura. Growing up on a dairy farm with some vineyard parcels, Jean-Luc developed an early interest in winemaking, not just Comté. In 1991, after attending enology school, he founded Domaine Jean-Luc Mouillard, eventually expanding his vineyard holdings to 11 hectares acres across the Côtes du Jura, L’Etoile, and Château-Chalon appellations. The village of Nevy-sur-Seille, where Jean-Luc was born, features a historic stone bridge that serves as a motif on Jean-Luc's wine labels.
