Jura - Domaine André et Mireille Tissot
96/100 Parker
"A rare cuvée, the result of a precise blend: three barrels aged in a temperate cellar and three barrels from a warmer, drier cellar, where evaporation accentuates the wine's concentration and power. With approximately 18.5% alcohol, this Vin Jaune is full-bodied, intense, and deeply expressive, displaying peaty, smoky, and iodine notes typical of the Triassic soils from which it originates. On the palate, it impresses with its density, saline strength, and aromatic dimension—a wine of impact, broad, vibrant, and assertive, more powerful and nutty than the Château Chalon of the same vintage. A Vin Jaune of terroir and character, exceptional and fascinating." – Luis Gutiérrez

The 2011 Vin Jaune Les Bruyères from Bénédicte and Stéphane Tissot is a masterful expression of Savagnin du Jura, aged for 12 years under a veil in the estate's barrels. Sourced from the Bruyères terroir, characterized by Triassic marl, it combines power, complexity, and mineral depth. The long aging without topping up reveals a captivating nose of fresh walnuts, curry, saffron, dried fruits, hot stone, and sweet spices, with a saline and iodine touch characteristic of the terroir. On the palate, the wine displays impressive breadth, both energetic and refined, driven by lively tension and almost infinite aromatic persistence. This vibrant and noble 2011 embodies the purity and rigor of the Tissot style, a wine for meditation and gastronomy, promising near-eternal aging.
