Get to know: Badoz, Chardonnay Cotes du Jura

Tasting Note

A very floral and delicate example of the Chardonnay here from Jura legends Badoz. This wine is aged in stainless steel to preserve its freshness. On the nose you find lemon and lime fruit with more floral notes, the palate has pear and apricot leading to a nice minerally finish.

Try this with river fish like trout.

Producer Info

The Badoz family have been vignerons in Poligny, in the heard of Jura since 1659, transferring traditional winemaking techniques and local know-how from father to son for more than 10 generations. In 1970 Bernard Badoz set about a varietal re-planting programme to match varietals with the different soils found in the ‘Roussots’ vineyards of the family domaine. This rigorous work enabled him to develop high end wines combining an expression of grape varietal with that of terroir. In 2003 his son Benoit took over and brought about further changes and new wines which further improved the overall quality.
