Jura’s sharpest bubbles, bone-dry & all-natural
Sparkling blend, native yeasts only. Chardonnay, Pinot, Poulsard, Trousseau
Tissot’s top Crémant is one of the region’s most serious sparkling wines. Fermented with frozen must instead of sugar, aged on lees, and made in tiny quantities—it’s dry, energetic, and made for food. Treat it like Champagne.

Description

One of the most ambitious sparkling wines of the Jura. Since 2005, Stéphane Tissot has refined this méthode traditionnelle Crémant with 100% indigenous yeasts—no vin de paille, no shortcuts. This current release is a blend of 2019 and 2020, bone-dry and laser-focused, made with a mix of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Poulsard, and Trousseau. Still youthful, with more depth to come in bottle.

Reviewer:Luis Gutiérrez, Wine Advocate (Robert Parker)
Review:Tissot started indigenous Crémant in 2005 and took 15 years for it to be 100% indigenous in the sparkling wine. The NV Crémant du Jura Indigène blend of 2020 and 2019 refermented with frozen juice. One-third of the total Jura production is still Crémant. This is bone dry and sharp, as he doesn't use vin de paille anymore. This is still very young and primary and without much complexity, which comes with time in bottle, as I could see with some older bottlings he opened. This year, 3,200 liters of must were frozen to referment his sparkling wine, because he makes a total of 60,000 bottles of sparkling. And it's a growing category; in 2023, there will be 100,000 bottles.
