Montbourgeau, a century-old estate based in the Jura village of L'Etoile (so named for the prodigious amount of star-shaped fossils in the soils, formed when ancient seas dried up), produces one of our favorite crémants. From Chardonnay grown on a mix of clay and limestone soils, which help to draw out minerality and then amplify it.
Welcoming fruit (apple, pear, a hint of lemon zest) combine with chalky, slightly saline minerality for a complex, but easy-drinking bottle of bubbly. A fine beverage to start off the evening but interesting and weighty enough to drink with a meal, start to finish.

"This is not a blend of vintages, but the vintage is not visible anywhere on the label to simplify them and be able to use the same ones across different harvests. I tasted the NV Cr?mant du Jura from the 2012 vintage -- a very dry, pure Chardonnay matured in contact with the lees for 18 months and bottled as a Brut, with less than three grams of sugar. The nose is clean and subtle, with some simple notes of white fruit, flowers and a little yeast character. The palate is fresh, equally clean, straightforward and easy to drink. The appellation started in 1995 and the first Cr?mant here is from 1996; the sparkling wines are quite popular locally and often represent a significant percentage in some cellars. 3,000 bottles produced."

Tasting Profile


Domaine de Montbourgeau was founded a century ago, in the small Jura town of L’Etoile — the star — thus named because of the prodigious amount of star-shaped fossils in the soils, formed when ancient seas dried up.

Over the decades, they’ve become known for their white wines; like the best in the region, they are complex, saline, and (mostly) oxidative, with waxy yellow fruit and tons of minerality. They mostly grow Chardonnay, with a bit of Savagnin thrown in, as well as a smattering of red grapes.
