Region: Côtes du Jura (Château-Chalon), Jura, France
Grapes: Savagnin
Body: Medium
Notes: Electric and alive. Zesty citrus, green apple, crushed almonds, honeysuckle, salt, umami. Ouillé-style — bright, not oxidative. Serious Jura magic.
Pairing: Artichoke with butter, Comté cheese, roast chicken, poultry, mushroom dishes.
Additional Info: François Rousset-Martin is one of the Jura's most revered producers, trained in Burgundy but devoted to illuminating the terroirs of Château-Chalon and the Côtes du Jura. The Cuvée du Professeur comes from a 0.25-hectare parcel of Savagnin vines in the Sous-Roche vineyard in Château-Chalon, planted on clay-marl soils. Vinified ouillé (topped up) rather than sous voile, preserving vibrant freshness without the oxidative character of Vin Jaune. Fermented and aged in Burgundian barrels with little to no sulfur, bottled unfined and unfiltered. Certified organic (Ecocert). The 2022 vintage received a 97-point score from Wine Advocate. Imported by Kermit Lynch.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
