| Remarkable wine indeed! Vin Jaune is made exclusively with Jura's Savagnin grapes in a way which defies the most elementary oenological laws: 6 years in 3 ¼ filled oak barrels without "ouillage" (topping up) so that nothing disturbs the thin surface film, a veil of live yeasts, responsible for the "yellow" colour of the wine. The wine is then bottled in "Clavelins" holding 63cl, which corresponds to 1 litre of the wine harvested 6 years earlier. At this point the wine is almost indestructible and will age for 100 years or more. Rolet's vins jaune are benchmark classics, uncorked in advance and served at a temperature of 15 degrees, it develops inimitable, subtle green walnut flavours. This is a wine of tremendous body that is quite delicious with cheeses from Franche-Comte, Coq au Vin Jaune et Morilles, fish and poultry dishes in rich, creamy sauces. |

| An Estate which reflects the image of an ever-changing Jura and family enterprise, this Estate was created in the early 40's by Désiré Rolet. Today, his children have taken over and share the various responsibilities of the management of the Estate, Bernard and Guy take care of the vines and vinification; Pierre and Eliane are in charge of marketing, each one of them working with a view to the final objective of a wine-grower : the passion of obtaining, depending on the vintage the quintessence of the grappe knowing that wine starts being made in the vineyard. |
