Domaine Tissot

Crémant du Jura AOC Extra Brut

Tissot’s Crémants are out of this world, jousting with Champagne from a whole different plane of character, generally fatter and more opulent. The interplay between the dry, mineral complexity and rich generosity of fruit make every glass its own journey. Layered aromas of raw honey and baked red apple with hints of fresh herbs, fennel, and ginger on the nose. The palate is crisp and broad with juicy orchard fruit core giving way to notes of tangy yellow fruit, crisp apple, toasted almond, and quince on the persistent finish.
