Jean-Yves Péron, Le Pas de L'Ours 2019
Producer: Jean-Yves Peron
Region: Haute-Savoie, France
Grapes: Mondeuse
Style: Red
Alc.: 10.5%
Size: 75cl bottle
Notes: From one of JYP’s older plots of Mondeuse, the grapes are macerated for 2 months with regular pigeage, and then aged 3 years in old barrels. In spite of the light ABV, this is warm and rich from the barrel ageing, with some of the classic spice and bloodiness from the Mondeuse.

Conflans - Haute-Savoie
Jean-Yves, a Savoyard, is one of these. He studied oenology in Bordeaux and spent a few years working with winemakers around France and beyond. In 2004 he returned to the Savoie and started to collect small parcels planted with old vines of local varieties on the mica studded schist between 350m and 550m altitude. He now has around 1.5 hectares of tiny parcels which he vinifies separately – the Jacquere, Altesse, Rousanne and Mondeuse vividly expressing the details of the soil and the coolness of the alpine climate. Jean-Yves chooses to ferment in whole bunches for his white and red grapes but for varying amounts of times. The results are extraordinary…Read more
