Cellier Saint Benoit, Courbes Raies' Pinot Noir, 2023
Benoit's Pinot Noir from Courbes Raies shows how Burgundian training applies to Jura's distinctive terroir. Whole-bunch vinification in large Grenier tronconic vats followed by aging in barrels and demi-muids creates structured, mineral wine shaped by soil and site. Old vine material (mid-1980s back to 1959) provides depth; fossilized mollusk-bearing limestone provides mineral tension. This is not Burgundy, but carefully considered Jura Pinot that respects both the variety's elegance and the site's specific character.
