DOMAINE CLAUDE BUCHOT

This passion for good wines has only one objective: the harmony of wines and nature. In 1974, with his father, he converted the exploitation into organic wine growing. There are only three "organic" areas in the entire Jura! Precursors! It is therefore more than 41 years since the 6 ha appellation of Côtes du Jura is worked without a chemical, by breaking one in two. In 2000, it goes even further than organic farming, with biodynamia: enrichment of the soil with natural compost, treatment by infusion of plants (herbal tea, orty…). For the past three years, to further strengthen the natural defenses of the vine and the environment, it has replaced the Bordeaux boiling with essential oils, mainly citrus fruits (citrus, grapefruit, orange bark…). One of the few winemakers in France has abandoned it! Its principles also extend to vinification without chemicals to target zero sulfite. Exception wines (Yellow Wine, Savagnin, Poulsard, Chardonnay), raised in oak barrels according to the Jurassian tradition, very requested.
