Domaine de Montbourgeau was founded a century ago, in the small Jura town of L'Etoile — the star — thus named because of the prodigious amount of star-shaped fossils in the soils, formed when ancient seas dried up.

Over the decades, they've become known for their white wines; like the best in the region, they are complex, saline, and (mostly) oxidative, with waxy yellow fruit and tons of minerality. They mostly grow Chardonnay, with a bit of Savagnin thrown in, as well as a smattering of red grapes.

Professional Reviews

Robert Parker

RP 92
"This is an ephemeral cuvée of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Savagnin, because of the problems with the 2021 vintage. The 2021 5 Étoiles is a light ouillé white that is quite light and fresh, with 13% alcohol. It was bottled in October 2022 after an élevage of 12 months in foudre. 3,618 bottles were produced." -Robert Parker
