François's passion for winemaking began during his upbringing in Burgundy, where his father worked as a microbiologist for the famous Hospices de Beaune. After frequent trips to the Jura as a teenager, Francois moved there after his oenology degree in 2006.

His wines have been at cult status for years, with organic farming, low yields and a fastidious approach to vineyard health. The ouille (topped up method) whites are vibrant, concentrated and superbly long lived, while the reds are lithe, elegant and electric. 

We are honoured to be able to offer a tiny amount of the wines this year.
