    The vineyards of Domaine André et Mireille Tissot stretch across clay-limestone soils, typical of the Côtes du Jura region. These mineral-rich soils allow the vines to flourish, drawing from the earth the elements necessary for their growth. The continental climate, with its hot summers and cold winters, promotes a slow ripening of the grapes, thus guaranteeing optimal aromatic concentration. The vines, cultivated with care and respect, reflect a know-how passed down through generations, making each vintage a tribute to the Jura terroir.

    Owner and history

    The current owners, the children of André and Mireille Tissot, continue to uphold the family legacy with passion and determination. They have modernized winemaking practices while respecting the estate's founding values. Their commitment to sustainable viticulture and their desire to explore new horizons in winemaking demonstrate a forward-looking vision. Each vintage is the result of hard work and meticulous attention, aiming to reveal the very essence of the Jura terroir. The Tissots are also actively involved in promoting their region, convinced that the Jura deserves to be discovered and appreciated for its true worth.

    Vinification and aging

    The winemaking process at Domaine André et Mireille Tissot is meticulous, respectful of both the fruit and the environment. The grapes are harvested by hand, ensuring a rigorous selection of the finest berries. After partial destemming, alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, allowing for the extraction of the Pinot Noir's delicate aromas. Aging in oak barrels lasts several months and contributes to the refinement of the tannins. This process, combined with a biodynamic approach, preserves the terroir's identity and results in authentic and expressive wines.
