Les Matheny is the husband-and-wife team of Elise and Emeric Foléat, both lifelong Jurassiens. Emeric worked alongside Jacques Puffeney for 8 years; he continues Puffeney's legacy of working classical Jura varieties into unabashedly powerful wines, rather than the more usual wispy and pale wines of the region.
