Jurassic Bubbles from Tissot

Jurassic Bubbles from Tissot

Few winemakers in the Jura can match the level of quality, dependability, and pure deliciousness that Stéphane Tissot consistently turns out.

The Tissot family has been making wine in the Jura for decades — Stéphane's father André started the domaine in 1962, and Stéphane's first vintage was in 1989, at just 19. Almost immediately, Stéphane decided to move towards organic farming, achieving organic certification in 1999 and biodynamic certification in 2004. Today, Tissot is the start of the region, making soulful, vibrant, terroir-expressive wines.

There are benchmark level cuvées across the range, from topped-up Chardonnay that can rival even the most prestigious Burgundy estates to the peerless single-parcel vins jaunes. But the real MVP are his outrageously delicious sparkling wine. These are sparkling wines of energy and detail that coolly outclass many Champagnes costing twice as much.

Tissot’s Cremant is a beautiful, mineral-rich sparkler that is ideal for casual Fall drinking. It is, almost unanimously among our staff, a true Flatiron favorite in the non-Champagne sparkling wine category.
