Domaine Benoît Badoz Vin de Paille 2018 Half Bottle

The Badoz family have been making wine in Jura since 1659, passing down traditional winemaking techniques and local know-how from father to son for more than 10 generations! Domaine Badoz is situated in Poligny, in the heart of the Jura vineyards. This is a hilly area in eastern France, known for it's great gastronomy.

Benoit left home to hone his craft, working in Puligny Montrachet and Ch Petrus in Pomerol, before returning home to carry on the Badoz family winemaking history. Benoit's father had set about replanting the vineyards in 1970, matching varietal to a suitable soil. When Benoit took over in 2003, he continued to make improvements in the vineyards and in the winery, resulting in some very impressive wines.

Vin de Paille is a local specialty, made in tiny quantities. A selection of the best Savagnin, Chardonnay and Poulsard are dried on a bed of straw (paille) for 4 months to concentrate the sugars before pressing. They get only around 15 litres of must from 100kg of grapes! The intense sugar means the fermentation is very slow, and the wine is then aged for 3 years in oak barrels.

Aromas of candied fruits, gingerbread, baked apple and honey. The palate is lusciously sweet but the finish is lifted by delicious acidity and a wonderful lingering fruitiness. Pairs beautifully with a cheeseboard, tarte tatin or simply sipped on its own after a meal.
