WINE DESCRIPTION

Rolet Crémant du Jura Brut is an exquisite sparkling wine that epitomizes the Jura region's winemaking finesse. Crafted by Domaine Rolet Père et Fils, this Crémant showcases the diverse terroirs of AOC Arbois and Côtes du Jura. A harmonious blend of 50% Chardonnay, 10% Savagnin, and 40% Pinot Noir, Trousseau, and Poulsard grapes creates a captivating medley of flavors. The grapes are hand-harvested and gently pressed, followed by the meticulous second fermentation in the bottle. Afterward, the wine matures for a minimum of 12 months on lees, resulting in a sparkling wine with finesse. Expect lively bubbles, delicate fruity notes, and a beautifully balanced, refreshing character – an ode to Jura's exceptional craftsmanship.

In the Middle Ages, the region was known for its sweet wines, which were popular throughout Europe. In the 19th century, the region began to focus on dry wines, and the local Savagnin grape became the main variety used.
