Cuvée Marguerite 2015 - Magnum - Jean-François Ganevat

The domaine:

Declared "Best Winemaker of 2018" by the Revue du Vin de France, Jean-Francois Ganevat is a phenomenon. His meticulousness and attention to detail can't be bested, and his unique knack for unlocking all the nuances of the terroir in his wine is awe-inspiring. His 8 hectares vineyard in the Jura only grow exceptional fruits. Here, the grapevines are around 50 years old and they are well taken care of as they age (Jean-Francois is fond of organic farming and only uses a small amount of sulfites).

The wine:

A dry white wine, with a mineral character. This specific variety of Chardonnay (called "Melon a Queue Rouge") was made entirely organically, and is best paired with either fish or poultry.
