This vineyard was established on the slopes of Montaigu during the 13th century by the monks CHARTREUX. In 1794 the family PIGNIER acquires the domain of the monks as national property.
Today, Jean Etienne, Antoine and Marie Florence represent the 7th generation of winemakers, continue the tradition and have chosen to work their vineyard bio dynamically since 2002.
They offer the full range of Jura wines in the COTES DU JURA appellation: White wine from Chardonnay and Savagnin grapes, Poulsard red wine, Trousseau and Pinot noir, Crémant du Jura and Macvin, Vin Jaune and Straw wine from the best terroirs from the village of Montaigu.
GEOGRAPHY AND TERROIR: Vineyard located in the remote Val de Sorne (south slope of Montaigu) South exposure, south-east Sandstone limestones and variegated triassic marl Keuper
CULTURE: Vineyard in bio dynamie, control and certification by Demeter France since 2003: use dung of horn (500P), silica (501) and treatments with herbal teas. This culture makes it possible to preserve the indigenous yeasts favoring authenticity and purity of the wines.
Varietal: Trousseau at 28Hl / Ha to maintain the natural balance of the wine. Yield voluntarily limited by a short size and fruiting disbudding. We thus obtain a richer and more complex wine.
VINIFICATION Traditional red: destemming without pumping. Vatting with pigeage during a lunar cycle. Bottle of wine with indigenous yeasts, no chaptalization, nor any oenological additive. Aging in oak barrels (half-shells and pieces) for 12 months. No filtration and bottled without filtration, one day fruit, and capping with natural cork marked with fire.
