Bruno Bienaimé got his start working for the legendary Champagne producer Vincent Laval. This wasn’t a short stage. Bruno spent a full decade learning from one of the most precise and dedicated vignerons in Champagne (or all of France for that matter). With his own project in the Jura, Bruno decided to adopt many of the techniques commonly used to produce the delicate character of base wines in Champagne: hand-harvest, soft pressing in a small basket press, and separating press fractions to obtain the most delicate juice. So far, Bruno is working on a ludicrously small scale, producing less than 1,000 bottles in his inaugural 2017 vintage. This is sure to be a hallmark property in the Jura as the wines become more broadly known in the coming years.
This is ouille (topped up) Jura Chardonnay with quite a bit of power, balanced by impeccable freshness. Boisterous golden orchard fruit gives way to white florals and citrusy acidity with a pervading sense of salty minerality straight through to the finish.
