The Story

Similar to Pineau des Charantes, Macvin du Juras is typically made adding grape spirit to grape must. In this case, the must is obtained after passing through a pneumatic press. The alcoholic fermentation does not start, it is stopped by adding Marc du Jura: about 2/3 of grape must for 1/3 of marc. Grapes are grown on marl-limestone soils.

About Dom de Montbourgeau

Producer Story

Montbourgeau is the story of a family estate on which, for almost a century, each generation has expressed its passion for vines and wine.
In 1920 Victor Gros bought Montbourgeau and began to plant the vineyard. In 1956 Jean took over from his father: he created the winery and was keen to enlarge the vineyard and develop the estate. In 1986 Nicole Deriaux moved in, modernized the cellars, continued the plantations which enabled her to produce a yellow wine and developed export sales. In 2019 César 4th generation takes over the reins with projects for new plots, a new winery...with dreams...
