Description

Bénédicte & Stéphane Tissot Poulsard Amphore 2021Poulsard (Ploussard) vinified aged in amphora. Light red, perfume and tannin with an unusual texture. Fermented on skins with native yeasts and matured in terracotta amphorae, low or no SO. Terracotta accentuates Poulsards floral perfume while adding mouthfeel and a gentle savor; a very Jura specific experiment that works. Red berries, rose, light spice, a touch of earth and a subtle tannic grip airy and persistent.
