2022 Francois Rousset-Martin Cuvee 909 Pinot Noir

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.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Cuvée 909 is not the same profile as the 2021, as the years were very different. It's the domaine Pinot Noir and comes from Pinot Droit vines planted in 1998 in the lieu-dit En Beuzard in the neighboring village of Ménetru-le-Vignoble on limestone soils that are not that different from those in Burgundy. It was produced with an old style of winemaking (destemmed) but without using any added sulfur. It fermented with 50% full clusters and matured in a pièce (600 liters) that had been used for Trousseau before for around 18 months. It's a little riper, despite having the same alcohol on the label (13.5%), and there's a touch of meat, iron and earth. It has a medium-bodied to full-bodied palate with grainy tannins and good balance. 5,000 bottles were filled in November 2023. Drink 2024-2029.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Côtes du Jura Cuvée 909 hails from vines planted in 1998. Ripe red fruit jumps out of the glass and mingles with crushed violets and spicy undertones. Medium- to full-bodied and remarkably polished, the 2022 is deliciously juicy yet also downright serious. Bright and fruit-driven on the finish, the Cuvée 909 is a contender for the finest Jura Pinot of the vintage. Drink 2024-2028.
