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...
Organic or biodynamic wine
One of (if not the) best Macvin produced in Jura. A dessert in itself, with notes of candied fruit, raisins, honey, toasted almonds, apricot jam... Incredibly complex!
Sulphites-free wine
A sweet passerillé wine, with a nose of apricot, fig, and quince. The palate is balanced, dense, and syrupy, with beautiful freshness, length, and notes of spice. A cuvée that will leave you, as the French say, Sul Q (sur le cul) – dumbfounded and “on your bottom”!
Sulphites-free wine
A powerful, complex nose: citrus, mineral, saline, chalky, and buttery. Palate: wow, wow, and wow… substance and volume in spades, but moreover great elegance, a deep, vibrant, fine wine, with lovely length to balance the rich roundness of the Chardonnay.
Sulphites-free wine
Dry, clean and precise wine, with notes of spices and curry. The palate is rich, complex, with flavors of nuts, cinnamon and gingerbread. Endless persistence. Great finesse!
Sulphites-free wine
“J'en Veux Encore!” the label reads – literally, “I Want More!”. One taste of this supremely easy-drinking, red berry-focused glouglou wine, and you’ll understand where this cuvée got its name... The palate: atypical, round, supple, and very fresh on the whole.

A nose of black cherry, violets and undergrowth, with vegetal and subtle smoky notes... Palate: soft tannins, feels like sour blackcurrant candy, in a good way! Possible presence of gaz.

Sulphites-free wine
A fine, floral and highly mineral wine, with notes of raspberry, licorice and long pepper. The palate is fleshy, and as a whole it’s all about freshness.

Sulphites-free wine
A real wine for friends, a convivial bottle for an aperitif or charcuterie, with a very light color and notes of redcurrant, citrus, undergrowth, and tangy candy... Very drinkable on the palate, it is easy to drink, natural and a bit funky!

Sulphites-free wine
A characteristic, fruity expression of the Pinot Noir grape... The palate is spherical, no simple glouglou thirst-quencher here, this is a serious wine, already bringing impressive richness to the juice. Some gas may be present.
Sulphites-free wine
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.

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?
Sulphites-free wine
One of the rare maceration wines signed by Ganevat! Powerful, complex nose driven by notes of roasted apricot, honey, verbena, hazelnut, hay… Beautiful structure with polished tannins, generous volume — a wine built for the table. L’Eau d’Range? Far from out of range — it hits just right.
Sulphites-free wine
A superb, full-bodied wine for sunny days, with notes of strawberries, black fruits, and forest floor. Gassy on opening, slightly sparkling on the palate, pure fruit, low tannins, wild... Well, you shouldn't have made fun of the redhead (the rouquin in french) !
Sulphites-free wine
Rotagamay or Rota Gamète: 1.5 liter of happiness... You’re going to need at least one or two friends to take this beast on! An easy drinking glouglou wine overflowing with red fruit aromas... The palate is suave, with soft tannins, and a lot of freshness.
Sulphites-free wine
Complex, powerful nose with notes of yellow peach, lychee, rosebud, and mineral undertones. Palate: the complexity of the nose is reflected here, with a juice that has beautiful spherical volume and Ganevat-like amplitude, lots of tension... This is a top juice!
