Produced in truly miniscule quantities, Gahier’s Macvin du Jura channels the same no-brakes, dazzlingly energetic spirit that imbues his wines. Following the traditional blend of two-thirds unfermented grape must and one-third marc, it captures the gleaming health of Michel’s impeccably farmed fruit in a concoction that is mouthwatering in its combination of acidity, salinity, and luscious freshness. While the blend may change depending on the harvest, Michel typically employs both Chardonnay and Trousseau musts in his Macvin’s creation.
Michel Gahier Description
Macvin is a traditional Jura “Vin de Liqueur”, made of spirit – home-distilled Marc du Jura (using the domaine’s grape pomace) and fresh, unfermented Chardonnay juice. After being boiled down to 50% of its original volume, the wine is then fortified with a marc that has been made on the premises to gain an alcohol level between 16% to 22%. The resulting wine must then be aged in old oak barrels for at least a year before being released.
