Jacques Puffeney... The virtuoso of Vin Jaune.

From his small estate, Jacques Puffeney produces a marvellous yellow wine from Arbois, whose precision and finesse can rival the greatest signatures of Château-Chalon.

This philosophical and passionate winegrower manages, more than others, to transcend the magic of this vineyard which is too often forgotten and sometimes misunderstood. Jacques Puffeney is a great guardian of the Jura tradition and a great defender of the Savagnin grape. His yellow wine proves that this grape is one of the best in the world, capable of producing overwhelming wines.

The Estate Jacques Puffeney

Jacques Puffeney, an emblematic figure of the yellow wines of Arbois, vinified his first vintage in 1962, at Montigny les Arsures, only 12 hectolitres were produced at that time. Poulsard, pinot noir, trousseau, chardonnay and savagnin make up the grape varieties of the 5 hectares of the estate today. Passion and rigour in his work have always accompanied this talented winemaker, who is able to magnify the Jura grape varieties and reveal his terroirs as few can. His dazzling yellow wine is one of the most sought-after by Savagnin lovers


The work carried out in the vineyard and in the cellar is very traditional and as natural as possible. In combination with the magnificent marl soils of Arbois and Montigny, Jacques Puffeney has been producing for about fifty years wines that are recognised by all Jura wine lovers, typical of the Jura grape varieties, precise, with a depth combined with a rare finesse, whether with his famous Trousseau or his magical whites. The Savagnins are notably aged in old tuns, for as long as it takes to meet the requirements of the master of yellow. The sailing wines here are exceptionally complex. The "touch" of the greats... Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end and the artist will soon have to bow out, the 2014 vintage being the last he has announced.

So enjoy these famous nectars of Jacques Puffeney which will perfectly accompany a poularde with morels for the famous yellow wine, an old comté magnifying the oxidative character of the savagnin and its typical aromas of walnut... These are some of the best food-wine combinations that exist. Know how to appreciate them and consume them, as they should be, in moderation.

The Estate Le Clos du Caillou

The Clos du Caillou estate has the particularity of being an enclave adjacent to the Châteauneuf du Pape appellation area. The vineyard is made up of 44 hectares of Côtes du Rhône and 9 hectares of Châteauneuf du Pape, planted for the most part in 1956. It is composed of the 13 grape varieties authorised for the production of a Châteauneuf du Pape, the Grenache grape variety is the majority for the red wines, followed by Syrah, while the clairette rose, the grenache blanc and the roussanne share the majority of the white grape varieties. The soils here are particularly rich, sandy or pebbly, making it possible to produce wines of exemplary aromatic complexity.
All these specificities, gathered at the heart of the Clos du Caillou estate, allow us to offer very high quality Côtes du Rhône wines, such as the magnificent Quartz vintage, which demonstrates the richness of these exceptional terroirs. In addition, Sylvie Vacheron and Bruno Gaspard have been converting the estate to organic farming since 2006. The 2010 vintage was the first to benefit from the organic label (AB), which completes the quality of the work undertaken for decades. An estate to be followed closely, with all the qualities to produce the best... Discover the best vintages on the Passionnés du Vin website; Bouquet des garrigues, Quartz, Safres, Cuvée réserve; all of these vintages will brighten up your taste buds (in moderation) and go wonderfully well with a multitude of dishes, for an exceptional tasting experience.
