Producer & Origin
Bruno Bienaimé – Jura, France
New micro-production project, rooted in 3.2 hectares farmed organically, with deep respect for terroir. After a decade of experience alongside Champagne master Vincent Laval, Bruno crafts energetic, pure wines, evoking the spirit of Jura’s most admired producers, like domaine Labet.

Tasting Notes
Pale, pure and precise. Aromas of bright green apple, subtle almond, and hints of beeswax. On the palate: fine bubbles, delicate texture, mineral, tense and vibrant. A vinous style Crémant, far from overt brioche notes, more about texture, tension and gastronomic precision. Jura soul with Champagne finesse.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Additional Notes
Bruno’s years alongside Champagne’s Georges Laval resonate here: this is a Crémant with Champagne soul — but the identity of Jura shines through with purity and precision.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Suggested Pairings
Perfect as an aperitif or with oysters, sashimi, grilled scallops, vegetable tempura, washed-rind cheeses or citrus-driven and iodised dishes.

Ageing Potential
2024 to 2028. Already fresh and vibrant now — will evolve in complexity over 1–2 more years in bottle.
