Additional Information: Henri Le Roy is a first-generation winemaker who began his original career as a Biologist in Paris. Falling in love with Burgundy he did not possess Burgundy money so he decided to look further east to the Jura where he saw similar potential but where land was  a little more affordable, so he begin his second career in wine. His first vintage was in 2005, and he has continued to evolve and grow as a winemaker for the past decade-plus. 

Henri prefers to make Ouille-styled wines (topped off barrels) as opposed to the traditional oxidative or biological-styled wines for his whites. For his reds, he prefers the indigenous grapes Poulsard and Trousseau for classic flavour profiles.

The Chardonnay is made from sourced fruit and is a bright, vibrant fresh style. Loaded with apple and spiced pear notes, it is the perfect introduction to this master winemaker's style.
