This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes, harvested at perfect ripeness. The juice is concentrated through slow cooking before being blended with the estate's own pomace and brandy, resulting in an exceptional wine with an oxidative style. Aging in unprotected oak barrels allows for the development of complex aromas. The balance between the grapes' natural acidity and the sweetness of the sugars makes it a true delight to taste.

Domaine Bornard
In the Jura region, Tony Bornard has developed a personal approach to the area's emblematic grape varieties, notably Savagnin, Trousseau, and Poulsard. Vineyard work is conducted biodynamically, with attention paid to the natural balance of the grapes and their ability to express their origin without undue constraint.
Winemaking techniques allow for significant adaptation, with aging choices varying according to the desired profiles: topped up or not topped up, use of amphorae or old barrels. These options allow for adjustments to textures and balances without homogenizing the cuvées or imposing a single style.
The wines retain a marked spontaneity, with agile textures and often direct fruit, supported by a lively energy. The entire body of work highlights the diversity and vibrancy of the Jura terroirs, in a free yet coherent approach, attentive to both precision and expression.
