Located in the heart of the Jura vineyards in France, on a hill of grey marl and fossilised limestone, the Château d'Arlay vineyard dominates the history of wine: reputed to be the oldest wine château in France and a former Royal Vineyard of Spain, England and France.

Family owned, never bought or sold since the Middle Ages, the Château d'Arlay vineyard is a historical exception.

Alain, Anne and Pierre-Armand de Laguiche perpetuate here today a unique know-how: that of producing lively, dynamic, seductive wines and spirits with a marked personality.
Wines and spirits in an authentic Jura spirit, respectful every day of the Earth, of Men and Women, of Fauna and Flora.

Accompanied by a talented and experienced team, they work as closely as possible to the land to produce the best wines.

Produced in Arlay since the Middle Ages, this 100% Pinot Noir from old vines is their most produced wine.

Their terroir is considered as one of the best for this variety in Jura. 

Although it is matured 4 years in old barrels, it shows a fresh style with natural light tannins and a sweet spicy character with some mineral accents.

Tastes of wild red fruits, blackcurrant, cherry, green pepper and exotic wood. It can age at least 10 years and will be perfect after 5 years (after bottling) in a cellar. Best served at room temperature to match with roasted beef and chicken, game birds, grilled fish, pasta al dente, steamed green vegetables, fresh goat cheese or blue cheese.
