Domaine Baud - 'Ancestrale' Rouge, Côtes du Jura, France (2022)

TASTING NOTES

This light and whimsical red wine has aromas of leather and concentrated notes of morello cherry and wild strawberries. The tannins are soft, silky, and elegant. Serve with a light chill. 

The Baud estate dates back to 1742. Today, nineth generation vignerons Clementine and Bastien Baud are making some of the best-value wines in Jura. This unique wine region is a narrow valley in the remote hills between Burgundy and Switzerland that was once covered by an ocean millions of years ago. If you kick a stone in a Jura vineyard, it will probably be a fossil!
