Tech Sheet Dugois Chardonnay Terre De Marne Domaine dugois Arbois – chardonnay terre de marne jura Story In 1973, Daniel Dugois bought 2 hectares of vineyard and a house equipped with wine cellars in the village of Les Arsures, where he was born. He cultivated the vineyard and sold his production regionally. In 1982, he made his first harvest into wine in his own cellars and began to sell his wine in bottles to consumers. His first ever harvest earned him his first Gold Medal for his Chardonnay at the Jura Wine Contest. In 2013, Philippe took full control of the Domaine and in 2014, his wife, Melanie, joined the team as well. Their arrival enabled Daniel and Monique to take full advantage of their retirement. In that same year, Philippe and Melanie committed the Domaine to sustainable agricultural practices under the auspices of the “HVE” certification program. In 2019, the Domaine embraced the challenge of transitioning to NOP certification, which should be attributed in 2021. Grape Variety 100% Chardonnay Terroir Red gritty clay over Tri ass ic red marl and clay over dolomitic rock. Sustainable vineyard management. The use of phytosanitary products is monitored plot by plot. 33% of the ground between the vines is left covered with grass whilst the rest is worked by digging and raking. The yields are rationalized by pruning and bunch thinning. Winemaking Harvested by hand and pressed using a pneumatic press. After settling the must for 20 hours, the alcoholic fermentation starts automatically thanks to the naturally-occurring yeasts. The fermentation temperature is maintained at 18°C. Malolactic fermentation is then repeated thanks to the naturally-present bacteria. Tasting notes Bright straw color. Aromas of green apple and cherry plum, with a hint of honey and almond which carry onto the palate. The mouthfeel is sharp and mineral. Good length.

If not, please accept our apologies and we will suggest an alternative. We will also endeavour to supply the vintage indicated, however, if this changes, we will inform you. We will provide the updated vintage on our list. WELCOME Welcome to the new St John’s College Wine List for 2017/18. The wines have been chosen for their individual style and quality. The Catering Team here at St John’s College tasted many of the new wines for the list in March 2017, to make sure they fall within our quality expectations. Some of the wines have been tasted against some of the menu items that feature in the new set of banqueting menus. We also believe that these wines give real value for money. We have also held a few wine tastings with the students of the College, which is always important, as they then know the wines when selecting for their functions. In February 2017 we hosted a wine suppliers’ lunch to discuss new wines, regions, vintages, the wine trade in general and new wines for the list. Many of the suppliers have given us great help and support throughout the year. I visited some vineyards in Portugal, Austria, Sweden, Bordeaux, Rioja and Alsace in the last year. This year we have added a little Bordeaux section to the wine list. Please try some of the more unusual wines, they are good quality and very well made.

It is above all a cultural symbol which represents the identity of a region, its geography, its architecture, its tradition and its own unique story which I would love to share with you”.

Here at The Wine Story Club, our philosophy is that where wine is concerned “small is beautiful” in the sense that wines lovingly produced in small quantities by families who have often worked there for generations are more likely to have individual character, identity and soul than wine produced as a brand in big volumes in an impersonal factory environment. Our wine selection is also based on finding wines which are really typical of their region to help you appreciate the diversity of the world of wine in its full glory. We focus on natural ways of production (Organic, Natural & Biodynamic) because we fervently believe that wine is a natural product which deserves respect and which should be preserved as much possible from the artificial influences of chemicals and additives such as sulphur and pesticides.

  • Côtes Du Jura Blanc 2018 Héritage
    CÔTES DU JURA BLANC 2018 HÉRITAGE Domaine MAIRE & Fils Even if Henri Maire embodied for years the emblematic figure of the Jura wines, several generations have been necessary to patiently built one of the largest and greatest estates in the area, focused on key appellations such as Château-Chalon, l’Étoile and Arbois. The Domaine MAIRE & Fils covers nowadays 218 hectares of vines producing all the area grapes varieties. Appellation The Jura wine region is small in size but large in its remarkable diversity. It covers 80 kilometres between Burgundy and Switzerland, in the eastern France. Created in 1937, the AOC (designation of origin) of Cotes du Jura is omnipresent in the north and south of the vineyard, on varied and contrasting terroirs. It is the second leading AOC in Jura in terms of production, and it engages all five of the Jura's grape varieties. The whole range of wines of the Jura is represented, although the whites dominate - still or sparkling - with wines that are round, fruity, and generous. Grape Variety The Chardonnay grape variety, originating from Burgundy but cultivated in the Jura since the 10th Century, has become a native of the region. Its great adaptability makes it the most prominent grape variety today, especially on limestone and light soils. 1 Terroir & cultivation mode In order to develop a harmonious cuvée, our Côtes du Jura comes from a selection of our best plots. The work in the vines, is based on the respect of the nature and the soil. For young vines, located on steep slopes, to avoid erosion, we cultivate a row out of two, practice soil reassembly to aerate the lands subjected to settlement due to moisture, and grass with plants.

  • Domaine Jean-Luc Mouillard Jura
    Domaine Jean-Luc Mouillard Jura The Wines • Côtes du Jura Chardonnay: This Chardonnay comes from three parcels totaling just under seven acres of vines. The initial fermentation takes place in steel with the malo taking place during aging in older barrels, and both fermentations are normally spontaneous (as with all their still wines). The wine is a product of Jura’s alpine foothills—their elevation and their limestone—making for a delicious combination of elegance and minerality. Production averages a little over 400 cases. • Côtes du Jura Savagnin “L’Ouillé”: Ouillé, from oeil, French for eye, refers to wines that during élevage are topped off up to the eye of the barrel to be protected from oxidation—standard just about everywhere except in Jura, where the tradition has been to work with oxidative wines. The grape is Jura’s own distinctive Savagnin, commonly used to make the Sherry-like Vin Jaune and the sweet, concentrated Vin de Paille. This version is one of the new wave of wines coming out of these Alpine foothills. Production is limited to a couple hundred cases. • Côtes du Jura Trousseau: Two parcels, 2.35 acres. Trousseau is a Jura native and at some point in its history migrated to Portugal, where it is known as Bastardo. The Mouillard rendition is a lightly-colored wine of notably full, limestony flavors. Lighter years see this wine aged entirely in tank while riper years can see barrel ageing. Low yielding years can result in this being blended with Poulsard and Pinot Noir to make a red in sufficient volume named Rubis.

Later this month we will be participating in the Handmade event in Melbourne where a number of importers of natural wines and producers of local natural wines will be showcasing their offerings at the popular Builders Arms Hotel in Fitzroy. See the details below. While we are in Melbourne we will also be matching our wines to six different cheeses at the new and funky Clever Polly’s in West Melbourne. Once again, the details are in this newsletter. We have six different special packs this month. The first highlights the newly arrived wines from the wonderful Jean-Paul Brun who makes such clean, precise, flavoursome wines in the Beaujolais. The second is a pack of the no added sulphites red wines from Michel Guignier also from Beaujolais but further north near Fleurie. We then offer a pack of interesting whites and another of lighter style reds for those of you who prefer red wines that complement food rather than overpowering it. We then have another “No added sulphites” pack due to the increasing demand for this style of wine. The final pack is a collation of wines from Gaillac to go with the story later in the newsletter about this fascinating wine region in the south of France.
