Where this wine come from?
Frenche-Comte is a cultural and historical region of eastern France on the border with Switzerland and has a lot in common with its neighbour. It is composed of the modern departments of Doubs, Jura, Haute-Saône and the Territoire de Belfort.
Soil: The terrain in Franche-Comté is dominated by the Jura mountain – sub-alpine mountain range that separates France and Switzerland. These mountains are formed by Jurassic limestone, which has given rise to the calcareous clay soils found throughout the region.
Curiosity
- Thanks to its strong DNA, Chardonnay is the most widely planted white grape variety, globally.
- The famous Comté cheese comes from the same area of this wine.
