Tasting Note

Pale and bright, with aromas of fresh lemon, citrus, white flowers and orchard fruit. The palate is beautifully fresh and energetic, combining fine acidity with a lightly rounded, almost creamy texture. A strong mineral, stony character emerges through the mid-palate, leading to a long, saline and mouth-watering finish. Elegant and precise rather than overtly oxidative, this is a particularly pure expression of Jura Chardonnay.

Product Notes

Les Bottes Rouges Arbois Leon Chardonnay is a stunning white wine from the Jura region of France.

On the nose, aromas of ripe pear, citrus, and honey mingle with hints of white flowers and toasted almonds. The palate is rich and full-bodied, with flavors of apple, lemon curd, and a touch of vanilla. The wine has a refreshing acidity and a long, elegant finish. Les Bottes Rouges Arbois Leon Chardonnay is the perfect accompaniment to seafood dishes, poultry, or creamy cheeses. This wine is sure to impress even the most discerning palate.

About the Winery

Les Bottes Rouges is a highly regarded organic and low-intervention winery in the Jura, based in Abergement-le-Petit, just outside Arbois. The domaine was founded by Jean-Baptiste Ménigoz, who originally worked as a schoolteacher before becoming increasingly fascinated by wine. After spending years working in vineyards alongside local vignerons, he trained with Jura benchmark producer Stéphane Tissot and established Les Bottes Rouges in 2012. The domaine takes its name from a song by French rock band Les Wampas, reflecting Ménigoz's independent, unconventional spirit.
