Description
The Crémant du Jura Brut from Domaine Fumey Chatelain is a sparkling wine made from Chardonnay grapes. The estate, located in the Jura region, is renowned for its expertise and respect for traditional winemaking. This Crémant, from one of France’s most prestigious sparkling wine appellations outside Champagne, is an elegant and fresh wine, perfectly suited for festive occasions or to accompany light meals.
Blend
This Crémant is made from 100% Chardonnay, giving it great finesse and bright acidity. Chardonnay, a noble grape variety widely cultivated in the Jura, brings freshness, elegance, and delicate aromas. The traditional method used to produce this Crémant, similar to the one employed in Champagne, creates fine and persistent bubbles, with a complex aroma developed through extended aging on lees.
Tasting Notes
Appearance: The wine displays a pale yellow color with silver reflections, brilliant and accompanied by fine and regular bubbles.
Nose: The nose is fresh and expressive, revealing aromas of citrus such as lemon and grapefruit, along with notes of white flowers like acacia and honeysuckle. Subtle hints of brioche, hazelnut, and toasted almonds add complexity.
Palate: On the palate, this Crémant is lively, with vibrant acidity bringing freshness. Citrus flavors and green apple dominate, followed by more delicate notes of dried fruits and toasted bread. The mousse is fine and creamy, delivering a pleasant mouthfeel. The finish is long and elegant, with a mineral touch typical of Jura wines, marked by a crisp vivacity.
Aging Potential
The Crémant du Jura Brut from Domaine Fumey Chatelain is ready to drink now but can be stored for 2 to 3 years. Over time, it will gain complexity, developing more evolved aromas of dried fruits and pastries while maintaining its freshness.
Food Pairing
Appetizer: Perfect to accompany light hors d’oeuvres, smoked salmon toasts, or gougères.
Seafood: Oysters, scallops, langoustines, or grilled shrimp.
Fish: Grilled fish or fish in light sauces, such as trout or salmon.
White Meats: Roast chicken, turkey, or veal fillet.
