Our first time trying the Molette grape made by itself, so for others too, here’s a little info:

“Molette is a white wine grape belonging to France primarily planted in the region of Savoie, which as a varietal has a tendency to produce wine of neutral taste so it is mostly combined with Rousette to improve the complexity and its addition can provide a significant peppery feature.”

Rather than being blended, Alice has used it solo here and we all really enjoyed the previous 2020 vintage, which is slightly salty, chalky and a bit banana-ish in the best possible way 😋

Previous 2020 vintage: Lovely and bright yet with lower acidity than many l’Octavin wines, making it more accessible for multiple occasions.

Refreshing and tasty !

NATURAL WINES BY L'OCTAVIN

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.
