One of the most renowned growers in Jura, Domaine Labet is located in Rotalier in the Sud-Revermont. In the late 1970s Alain Labet was probably the first vigneron in the Jura to make and bottle wines from individual terroirs separately, and in the 1990s when he started making topped-up whites, there were only one or two winemakers making wines this way elsewhere in the Jura (Pierre Overnoy in Arbois being foremost).

Made from a Bajocian limestone base and low yields from a tiny parcel massal selected and planted in 1983. It was aged in old barrels for seven months and bottled off with less than 7mg/l of total sulphur. The fruit has a sculpted quality; floral with zesty cherries and salinity with incredible finesse.

*Please note that due to very limited supply there is a maximum of 1 bottle of each Labet cuvée per client and/or order*
