Product Description

The 2022 Arbois-Pupillin « Fonteneille » from Domaine de la Pinte is a pure and crystalline expression of Jura Chardonnay, grown on blue marl soils at altitude in the village of Pupillin—one of the appellation’s highest and most prized terroirs. Certified biodynamic since 2009, the domaine is a pioneer in organic and low-intervention winemaking in the Jura.

Vinified without added yeasts and aged in large neutral foudres for 12 months, this Chardonnay is made ouillé (topped up), preserving freshness and purity rather than oxidative character. The result is a bright, saline wine with alpine lift, textured mid-palate, and a mineral-driven finish.
