Ivre de Vivre

Alice Bouvot of Domaine de l'Octavin is a well-known figure in the natural wine world, but she actually started out in the traditional wine scene. After studying viticulture in Bordeaux, she made the move back to her home in Jura at 30, curious about the region’s unique terroir and grape varieties. Now, she works about 5 hectares of land and also makes some négociant wines. Her wines are full of life and offer a different take on Jura, which is why they’re so popular worldwide. A few of her standout wines include the Hip Hip Jura range, Elle Aime, Petit Poussot, and Corvées de Trou Trou, which is a vibrant Trousseau.
