# Montchauvier by Domaine Les Lucioles Tucked away in the Jura hills, this small family estate works its vines with real care — organic farming, hand-picking and as little fuss as possible in the cellar. The parcel sits on clay-limestone soils that give the wine a lovely tension and a stony freshness you can almost taste in the finish. Fermentation happens naturally with indigenous yeasts, ageing is patient, and sulphur is kept to a bare minimum, so what lands in your glass is honest and alive. Expect bright fruit, a savoury edge and plenty of character. Pour it with comté, poultry or simply good company.

Tucked away in the Jura, this small family estate works its vines with real care — organic practices, hand-harvesting and a light touch in the cellar. The result is a white with plenty of charm: bright citrus, orchard fruit and a whisper of hazelnut, carried by that lively freshness the region does so well. Fermented with native yeasts and aged gently, it keeps its purity without any heaviness. Pour it alongside a creamy Comté, roast chicken or a plate of river fish, and you'll see why it disappears quickly. Honest, characterful and easy to love — you'll want a second bottle.
