Vintage: 2021
Region: Jura, France
Viticulture: Organic
Grape varieties: 50% Pinot Noir and 50% Trousseau
Domaine de la Loue Le Rouge is made from an equal part blend of Pinot noir and Trousseau. Undergoes a 7 day, millefeuille maceration. This year the wine benefitted by a short addition of second pass Savagnin skins. After a vintage of immense loss, the minuscule quantities produced reflect a wine of delicacy and quiet concentration, with a nearly imperceptible structure that guides the buoyant red fruit and mineral palate. Juicy wild strawberries, wildflower bouquet, and pop-rocks acidity.
Song: Fearless by Pink Floyd

About Domaine de la Loue
Catherine Hannoun is based in Port Lesney, a small commune about 15 minutes north of Arbois which exudes the tranquility many associate with the hills of Jura. Having worked for many years in film, including on Mondovino (a film bringing some of the shadier practises of the global wine economy to light), Catherine settled in Jura in 2008. It was clear after working alongside Emmanuel Houillon that this was the area for her, and in 2009 bought a small parcel of vines and her current cellar. She now has 3.2ha of vineyards of Chardonnay, Savagnin, Trousseau and Pinot Noir around Marnoz and Arbois and produces wines that honestly portray the grape and terroir in every sip.
