Les Corvées is the parcel Jean-François Ganevat made famous, and Domaine Ratte farm a share of it biodynamically. Michel-Henri and Françoise Ratte spent twenty-six years sending their fruit to the Arbois cooperative before they began bottling for themselves in 2015, and their son Quentin now works alongside them. This is Trousseau from old vines on that site, a grape whose pale colour misleads people into expecting something slight. It is not slight. Spiced red fruit, dried herbs and a fine savoury grip, carried on the acidity the Jura brings to everything.

Pairing Suggestions

Open this when someone tells you Jura reds are too light to be taken seriously.
Trousseau's spice and gentle grip suit soy-braised meat, so tau yu bak or braised duck.
Roast pork with sage, or anything that has been near woodsmoke.

About Domaine Ratte

Domaine Ratte is the passion project of Michel-Henri and Françoise Ratte, a powerhouse husband-and-wife duo redefining tradition in Arbois, Jura. Their wines are deeply rooted in respect for their land and their craft. With 9 hectares spread across revered sites like Les Corvées, Grand Curoulet, and la Bergère, the domaine is a mosaic of Jura terroir. The vines, passed down from Françoise’s family, have been farmed organically and biodynamically since 1989, long before it was fashionable. The lineup is a love letter to Jura’s native grapes: Savagnin, Chardonnay, Trousseau, Ploussard, and Pinot Noir. Now joined by their son Quentin, the Ratte family continues to champion low-intervention winemaking, letting the vines do the talking. For Michel-Henri and Françoise, it’s not just about making wine - it’s about creating something timeless.
