Le Bastard is Fumey-Chatelain's Trousseau with an address: one vineyard split across two lieux-dits in Montigny-lès-Arsures, each on a different soil. En Barbi sits on blue marl and Les Loges on schist and marl, and both are planted to Trousseau à la Dame, a particular strain of the grape. (The name gets a grin at the register, but the wine is serious.) The winemaker is Marin Fumey, who works out of his family domaine. He's also a cousin of Stéphane Tissot, a name Jura fans will know. The vines are farmed organically with Ecocert certification. If Jura reds have already won you over, this is a good next step: Trousseau that shows you exactly where it grows.

More about

Domaine Fumey-Chatelain is a family-run estate producing wines for several decades. They’re located in the heart of the Jura, with land that abuts Domaine de Pelican (an estate which has gained fame for two reasons: the first being that it was previously owned by Jacques Puffeney, godfather of the Jura; the second being that it is currently owned by Burgundy's Marquis d’Angerville).

Marin Fumey is the current winemaker (his father tends the vines and his mother takes care of sales), and though his roots are firmly planted in the Jura, he’s traveled extensively as a wandering wine professional, with stints in Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand. All of this globetrotting has exposed Marin to new philosophies, practices and languages (he’s the rare Jurassien winemaker who is fluent in English); his goal now is to amplify his family’s efforts and make world class wine.

Where his father made just a handful of wines, Marin has expanded the Fumey-Chatelain range quite extensively, allowing him to put forth a variety of terroir expressions.

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Saucisse de Morteau with braised lentils; roast chicken with a morel cream sauce; duck breast with cherries; mushroom and Comté tart; charcuterie boards with pâté en croûte.

Tasting Profile

Expect the classic Arbois Trousseau profile: pale ruby in the glass, with wild strawberry, redcurrant and sour cherry lifted by white pepper and a savoury, earthy edge. Typically light-bodied with bright acidity and fine, gentle tannins, it finishes fresh and spicy. Think of a more peppery, savoury cousin of Pinot Noir.
