Domaine Grand ‘En Prêle’ Côtes du Jura Pinot Noir 2023 (750 ml)

100% Pinot Noir (grain fin)

ABV 13.37%

Organic Certified

The 2023 Domaine Grand ‘En Prêle’ Côtes du Jura Pinot Noir comes from 25-year-old vines of Pinot Noir à grain fin, a finer-berried and more delicate biotype that thrives in the Jura’s clay and limestone soils. The fruit is hand-harvested with rigorous berry selection in the vineyard and on the sorting table before being fully destemmed. A five day cold maceration precedes fermentation, with six months of skin contact in infusion tanks at warmer temperatures to enhance texture and depth. Twice-daily pump-overs maintain balance before pressing. Malolactic fermentation takes about a month to complete, and the wine is aged 14 months in neutral 228L barrels, with topping up every four days to prevent oxidation. Bottled unfined and lightly plate-filtered, this Pinot Noir shows vibrant red cherry, wild strawberry, and floral aromatics, layered with earthy mushroom, dried herbs, and a mineral-driven finish, all framed by Jura’s signature tension and finesse.

Inspired by Domaine Grand’s wines, (Parisian street artist) Bast created a bold, textured masterpiece for the Domaine - Joachim Werner artfully deconstructed it, weaving its essence into each label to match the energy & spirit behind every wine.

Nestled in the Jura, Domaine Grand is a story of family, passion, and an unwavering commitment to the land. The domaine officially took shape in 1970, when André Grand and his brothers expanded the family vineyards to 25 hectares, fully dedicating themselves to viticulture—building on the foundation laid by their father, René Grand. This set the stage for the next generation to carry the domaine forward. In 2011, Emmanuel Grand (André’s son) and Nathalie Morin took the reins, bringing a new vision to the estate. With deep roots in Jura wine—Emmanuel continuing his family’s legacy and Nathalie coming from a line of winemakers in Arbois—they sought to refine the domaine’s focus. By 2015, they had carefully selected the finest 11 hectares to farm organically, prioritizing sustainability, precision, and the purest expression of their terroir. Their vineyards stretch from Arbois to Château-Chalon, with the majority surrounding their home, featuring vines ranging from 25-50 years old to a remarkable century-old plot. Specializing in Chardonnay, Savagnin (both ouillé and oxidative), Trousseau, and Pinot Noir, Domaine Grand produces around 45,000 bottles annually. With Nathalie leading the work in the vineyards and Emmanuel in the cellar, they handle everything themselves—practicing organic farming, aging in old barrels, and using only minimal sulfites at pressing. Shaped by the Jura’s challenging climate, their wines are pure, expressive, and deeply compelling.
