Domaine Des Cavarodes, Poulsard Les Lumachelles 2020

100% Poulsard

Jura, France

Etienne began Domaine des Cavarodes in 2007 when he was just 22 years old, after working for several years with Pascal and Evelyne Clairet of Domaine de la Tournelle. He was fortunate to acquire a few very old parcels of vines between 60 and 120 years of age. These vines are just on the north side of the Loue, and therefore just outside the appellation of Arbois. The parcels are planted to several extremely old and rare Jura varieties that are great curiosities to nurseries in the Jura and beyond. Etienne’s vineyard work has been organic since the beginning. For such a small Domaine, Etienne makes a wide range of wines, some named for soil types or fossils and others for the vineyards that produce them.
