2018 Lulu Vigneron Pinot Noir Cotes du Jura

Winemaker Notes:  This is not the Pinot Noir you know — it's an ancient strain of Pinot Noir that originates from the Jura, also known as Savagnin Noir. There are only 2 parcels of this rare grape in the region, including this plot located in Le Vernois with calcareous and marn soils. Here we see some of Pinot's sous bois flavors — red fruit, black tea and cocoa — alongside delicate minerality.
