2018 Francois Rousset-Martin Cuvee Meme Marie
Francois Rousset is producing some of the most captivating wines in the Jura right now. Launching his winery in 2006 in the Chateau Chalon appellation, Francois labels his wines as Cotes du Jura since he makes them in a non-oxidative ouillé or topped-up style. Vinified by parcel, the farming is organic-certified with little to no sulphur and bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Even if what I tasted was not exactly the final blend, I sampled a 50/50 blend of Savagnin and Chardonnay that will be one of the components of the 2018 Côtes du Jura Mémée Marie, where the Savagnin ages sous voile for a few months and then is blended with the Chardonnay and matured exclusively in stainless steel. This wine set the tone of the tasting, showing the clean style and simplicity of fruit of this cuvée of Savagnin grown on gray marl soils and Chardonnay grown on stonier soils. It shows a little medicinal but is serious, dry, tasty and easy to drink. This white is named after his grandmother.
