Domaine de l’Octavin ‘Charlot’ Red 2023 Jura, France

Description

This is a blend of Merlot, Molette, and Muscat hand-harvested from vines grown in clay and limestone soils. The grapes undergo a whole-cluster, 30-day maceration in tank with spontaneous fermentation otherwise (ambient yeasts, no temp. control). The wine ages for an extended period in tank before being bottled unfined, unfiltered, with no additional SO2.
