Domaine de la Tournelle

Pascal and Evelyne Clairet founded the estate in Arbois in 1991; today, the winery farms around eight hectares of its own vines. No chemical products are used in the vineyards, with manual and mechanical soil management, cover cropping in every other row, compost and horse manure, as well as copper and sulphur. The grapes are hand-picked and strictly selected. In the cellar, the estate works with native yeasts, long lees ageing in old wooden vessels, regular ouillage and no added sulphur dioxide; the wines are bottled unfiltered.
