Domaine des Cavarodes – Franche Comté Blanc 2020 (one per order)

Franche Comté Blanc 2020 by is a white wine made in Jura with mainly and grapes.

This particular wine from Etienne Thibauld is from an old, ungrafted vineyard outside the Arbois AOP, which is a field blend..but mainly Chardonnay and Sauvignon.

For sure still a strong hype producer from the Jura region, dreadlocked Etienne Thiebaud deserves all the credit he gets. Notoriously shy and obsessed with a dedication in the vineyard, farming by horse and seemingly not interested in many modern aspects of life – this producer really is all about the wine and not the fame.

His wines are ones which are always a solid bet in the cool wine bars, rarely letting you down and often with a wonderful, precise balance between minerality, energy and depth.
