Arbois Rouge Singulier Trousseau, Domaine Tissot 2023
Stéphane Tissot's Trousseau Singulier is one of the highlights of his extensive range. The fruit comes from the estate's most prized parcels of trousseau. 2023 is a return to a lighter and more electric style compared to the 2022, including a lower alcohol. There is some carbonic maceration as well in 2023 which provides plenty of floral perfume and uplift. Expect wild strawberries, cherries and fresh cranberry notes with hints of pepper and spice. Drink from 2025 to 2030. 13.5%

Stéphane Tissot
One of the best winemakers of the Jura, Stéphane Tissot is innovative and inquiring, constantly trying out new methods and ideas. He returned to his family domain in Arbois in the early nineties and set about changing the way things were done, converting the estate, all 32 hectares of it, to biodynamic viticulture, increasing the density of plantings so that the vines compete harder against each other, dramatically reducing yields, and experimenting with clay amphorae for fermenting his reds. He uses little sulphur dioxide and when fermenting all his wines uses only natural yeasts, vinifying terroir by terroir, plot by plot, and making a wide range of wine styles, from chardonnay, pinot noir, poulsard and trousseau of great purity, to sparkling and sweet vins de paille, all very expressive of where they are from. He also carries on the family tradition of making the nutty, oxidative wines of Jura from the savagnin grape. These wines, unfortified and matured in barrels that are not topped up as the wine slowly evaporates, see a film of yeast (known as flor and also found in fino sherry) develop protectively on the surface, a style well worth exploring.
