From the Jura region, 'Tant-Mieux' is a Poulsard-based sparkling wine, namely a Pétillant Naturel, meaning that fermentation was finished in the bottle without the addition of sugar. It has a dried cranberry color and a touch of cloudiness as the wine is unfiltered and was not disgorged. Aromas include dried tea leaves, orange rind and bright strawberries. On the palate, expressive strawberry notes dominate as hints of amaro, tea and a hints of sweetness round out the flavor profile. The fruit is ripe, but still reserved in an Old World fashion. Acidity is abundant and there is even a hint of coarseness to the wine giving it a balanced, but medium-weight texture. Throughout the nose and the palate there is a hint if ‘beery-ness’ to the wine as the wine finished fermentation in the bottle and the yeast remains.

Importer notes: "100% Chardonnay. Organically grown, not certified. The vines, which are 35 years old, are the main asset of this vineyard. Pair this wine with fish, shrimps, oysters or white meat. Only 75 cases produced. Alcohol 13.4%. Drink over the next 10 years."

Trousseau is one of the principle red grapes from the Jura region of France. It is also called Bastardo, a component of port wine in Portugal. Winemaker Stéphane Tissot uses a biodynamic process with no chemicals or synthetic pesticides to make this wine. Light ruby in color. Bold aromas include black pepper, red fruits (strawberry, raspberry), and a touch of forest floor. In the mouth, the flavors echo the aromas of red fruits, black pepper and earthiness. Nice acidity and firm tannins make for good structure. Beautifully complex and juicy. Highly recommended.
