Sur Lyas benefits from a southwestern exposure with typical marnes clay soil. En Champaux is exposed to the southeast but the soil is composed of clay and limestone. Hand harvesting is de rigueur and the grapes are de-stemmed by hand except for a small layer of whole clusters that are placed in the bottom of the vat. This serves as a slow release of sugar to keep the vat bubbling along during the fermentation as well as giving the finished wine the added airy spiciness that comes when ripe stems are kept in the vat. The wine is aged in stainless steel vat for 10 months before bottling. The yields were only 26HL\/Hectare. 200cs produced from .80 hectares.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe robe has a brilliant cherry colored hue while the nose shows fresh berries, cherries and a bit of spice. The mouth shows cassis, spice and some earth. Ready to drink now, it will age gracefully for 3-5 years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1869, this family-run estate, like most during that time, was originally structured on a poly-culture model; vines, grain and livestock. It gradually evolved to producing only grapes and wine over the last 50 years and is now run by Jean-Marie (father) and Damien (son) Courbet. The estate now comprises 7.5 hectares of vineyards. Half are located on the slopes directly below the famous village of Château-Chalon which is arguably the greatest appellation of the region. The balance of the vineyards are located nearby in the communes of Domblans and Menétru.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beaune Imports","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53040818618682,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/wineonpiedmont.com\/products\/domaine-courbet-trousseau-de-la-vallee-cotes-du-jura-2024","provider":"Wine on Piedmont ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
