Description
The 2020 “Remonte en Ligne” from Domaine Fumey Chatelain is a bold blend of Pinot Noir, a noble and elegant grape variety, and Poulsard, a typical Jura variety known for its lightness and freshness. This wine showcases the Arbois terroir’s ability to produce wines that are both complex and delicate while adhering to a natural, low-intervention approach to viticulture.
Blend
Pinot Noir: Provides structure, deep red fruit aromas, and a silky texture.
Poulsard: Brings lightness, freshness, and subtle floral and fruity notes.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: Ruby red with bright reflections, slightly darker than pure Poulsard wines but still relatively translucent.
Nose: Expressive nose dominated by fresh red fruit aromas (cherry, raspberry), small berries, and floral nuances. Spicy and mineral touches add complexity.
Palate: On the palate, this wine stands out for its elegance and freshness. The Pinot Noir contributes fine structure, supple tannins, and pleasant length, while the Poulsard adds lightness and vivacity, making the overall profile very approachable. The balance between acidity and fruit is remarkable, with a long, slightly mineral finish.
Aging Potential
The 2020 “Remonte en Ligne” can be enjoyed now to appreciate its bright fruit and freshness, but it also has the potential to evolve favorably over 5 to 8 years in the cellar, developing more complex aromas of undergrowth, leather, and damp earth.
Food Pairing
This delicate and elegant wine pairs well with a variety of dishes:
White meats (poultry, veal, rabbit)
Fine charcuterie
Mushroom-based dishes (tarts, risotto)
Fish in sauce (grilled salmon, trout meunière)
Local Jura cheeses (comté, morbier)
