Cotes de Jura Rubis Berthet-Bondet

Jean and Chantal Berthet-Bondet, he a former mayor of Château-Chalon, revived a domaine that had not made wine for 50 years and picked their first harvest in 1985; daughter Hélène now runs it, organic since 2013. 15 hectares, including 4.5 of Savagnin in Château-Chalon. Rubis blends Trousseau, Poulsard and Pinot Noir, destemmed with a brief maceration. Hachette calls the estate a very safe bet in the Jura.
