Domaine Tissot
The history of the Domaine Tissot begins with André and Mireille, who, in 1962, decided to start a wine production in Jura, exactly in Montigny-les-Arsures, a few steps from Arbois, with the aim of producing wines with respect and in the development of the area. The 1990s saw an even more radical conversion with his son Stéphane Tissot and his wife Bénédicte, which aimed to eliminate the use of chemistry as much as possible. The result is 35 hectares of vines, cultivated in biodynamics since 2004, Demeter certified, located among the most qualitative terroirs of the Jura or Curon, La Mailloche, Les Bruyères and Château-Chalon. It is therefore a production that requires a lot of manpower and hard and constant work throughout the year. The particular conditions of this area lead to the production of wines of a certain honesty, elegance and delicacy. Following the same fil rouge also in the cellar, a non-interventionist philosophy is followed: use of only indigenous yeasts, no filtration, little use of sulfur dioxide and separate vinification, up to 36 different cuvées. All this leads to many different wines: from the "Crémant du Jura" to the "Macvin du Jura", passing through the various "Vins Jaunes" and "Vin de Paille", all wines bearing a great personality and dignity.
