Domaine Pignier Crémant du Jura "Other" | Jura

The creation of the Pignier estate is from a base of 2016 which aged 30 months on latte. No input is added, it is a totally sulfur-free cremant of rare precision and greed. This cremant is 100% of the chardonnay grape variety with a very low yield of less than 40 hl/ha. The vineyards are located on the Val de Sorne terroir south of Montaigu. The soil is composed of Rhetian clays and limestones that promote a beautiful ripeness of grapes.

Philippe Mischler, sommelier at Mundovin : A huge crush for this "other" creation without sulfurμ. It places itself above the level of some champagnes. Its deliciousness and incredible complexity will delight tasters of wine bubbles. The rearing in half muid gives it a spectacular opening from the first seconds. Its purity and basic elegance are enhanced by a we've got a milled farm. Accuracy work by the Pignier team. For me, this is undoubtedly the best cremant in Jura.

The notes of toasted bread, brioche, dried fruits, dapricot and fresh coriander are revealed with great clarity. After a slight oxygenation, I also find notes of pink grapefruit and lemon basil. It's both complex, gourmet and fresh.

The mouth is perfectly linked to the nose, we find these pastry notes. In parallel a superb acidity that balances the whole. A hint of minerality comes to "title" the palate and brings incredible salinity. This makes you want to go to the table or continue the aperitif. As you wish!
