Jean-François Ganevat represents the 14th generation of vignerons of his family in Rotalier, in the south of Jura. After years working as the cellar master of Jean-Marc Morey in Chassagne-Montrachet, he took over his family’s estate in 1998. Ganevat converted the estate to organic viticulture the same year, and then to biodynamics in 2006. Jean-François practices single-parcel selection, that is to say, one soil type, one grape variety = one cuvée. As a result, the estate produces 45 different cuvées every year – and don’t worry, it’s all good, or rather... extraordinary. He is THE master of natural wine vinification, the benchmark for an entire generation of young vignerons. The estate is only 8.5 hectares and the yields are low. Fortunately, Jean François and his sister Anne also set up a wine trading company. They buy grapes cultivated by vigneron friends who respect their vision of wine. Beautiful grape varieties, vinified with foot treading, long carbonic maceration in truncated vats, indigenous yeasts and no sulphur added...
Sulphites-free wine
A nose with notes of grapefruit, honey, quince, and flowers... Palate: a fresh, mineral wine with lovely volume, backbone, and a saline finish.
Sulphites-free wine
A lively, clean, precise wine, with notes of spices and curry. On the palate: full-bodied, rich, intense and complex, with flavours of walnut, cinnamon and gingerbread. A classic example of the style, with notes of citrus fruits to boot – simply splendid!
Sulphites-free wine
A clear juice with notes of cherry and rose... Palate: some gas may be present, give the bottle a shake if it bothers you. This is smooth juice, all freshness and fruit, a highly enjoyable wine with great finesse. Goes down very easily.

Ultra fresh, energetic juice, with a nose of fresh raspberries, redcurrant jelly, and flowers... Palate: juicy, smooth, light, with a fruity, slightly tangy finish. Beware, this is hugely drinkable stuff!
Sulphites-free wine
A very beautiful expression of this grape variety, with notes of strawberry puree, blackcurrant, rose, and white pepper... Palate: lovely acidity, a lightly coloured juice with light, luscious tannins… a perfectly balanced wine. Poulsard + Ganevat = what else do you expect?

Notes of strawberry, pomegranate and a hint of spice. Palate: a finely acidic juice, very fresh and fluid, with the floral structure of the nose, and a lovely aromatic length.

A white wine that stays on course with vibrant tension and disarming purity. Notes of citrus and wet stone, a chiselled finish that dares you to pour another glass… if you’ve got the courage!
