Domaine Andre et Mireille Tissot (Benedicte et Stephane Tissot), Rose Massale Arbois White, 2024
Another bit of Tissot ingenuity. Rose Massale is not, despite the name, a rose - it's a white Chardonnay from a rare pink-berried mutation Stephane Tissot found growing on a tiny handful of old vines scattered across his Arbois vineyards. He propagated them by selection massale (preserving genetic diversity from heritage cuttings) and now bottles the wine as a single cuvee: pink-skinned Chardonnay planted across the estate's three classic Jura soils - Bajocien, Lias, and Trias. Biodynamic, hand-harvested, fermented spontaneously and aged twelve months in barrel. The result is Chardonnay with an unfamiliar accent: more aromatic, more textured, more electric than the version we all know. A piece of wine archaeology, beautifully alive.
