Domaine des Marnes Blanches Cotes du Jura Chardonnay Les Molates 2023
If the Jura is on your radar at all, Pauline and Géraud Fromont's Marnes Blanches belongs near the top of the list — a couple who founded their domaine in 2006 fresh out of winemaking school, farming organically with minimal intervention in the cellar. Les Molates is their ouillé (topped-up, non-oxidative) Chardonnay, drawn from parcels around Gevingey on the region's namesake white marl and limestone, aged about ten months in barrel. This is the clean, mineral, Burgundian-leaning side of the Jura — no nuttiness, just bright fruit and stony precision. 2023 was a ripe, generous vintage. It's a fantastic introduction to one of the region's most exciting young estates, and food-friendly to its core.
