<p>This joyful red wine perfectly embodies the rebellious and artisan spirit of the Ganevat house, while paying homage to the limestone and marl soils of the region.</p><p>The delicate nose reveals aromas of juicy cherry, wild strawberry and raspberry, peony, and pepper. The palate is lively, and fresh, fruity with a touch of spice, underlying acidity and a slight effervescence from the semi-carbonic maceration. </p><p>The name “Jaja” (which could be translated to “plonk”) evokes a certain apparent simplicity, but behind this facade lies a seriously masterful cuvée, produced from a blend of several Jura plots. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness. Vinification follows the principles of natural wine: indigenous yeasts, no added sulfur, no filtration, and no fining. Aging takes place in old barrels to preserve the fruit and drinkability of the wine.</p><p>Jean-François Ganevat – known as Fanfan – is making wine with the inspired magic of an alchemist. He comes from a long line of winegrowers, dating as far back as 1650. He took over the family estate in 1998. With only eight and a half hectares under vine, the family has seventeen different local varieties planted of both red and white grapes – an incredible amount of variation to consider for holdings of such small size. Jean-François creates a stunning number of cuvées, ranging between thirty-five and forty every year! His methodology goes far beyond the details of the average vigneron.</p><p>Origin: Jura, FranceVintage: 2024Grape varieties: Pinot NoirFood pairings: Charcuterie, goat cheese, pizza and other fresh tomato-based dishesBottle size: 75clABV: 13%</p><p>ORGANIC / NATURAL / VEGAN / LOW SULPHITE</p>
