Barrel-fermented and then aged in barrel (10% new) for 12-14 months, this Jura Chardonnay is generous and spicy in character, made with minimal intervention and biodynamically by the talented innovator Stéphane Tissot. Patchwork in the name refers to the blend of different plots and soil types that go into this wine, which has a full-bodied complexity and steely acid backbone. Impressive.
