Description

History

The André et Mirelle Tissot company is a family winery in the Jura, which has vineyards among its possessions in extraordinary territories such as Les Bruyères, La Mailloche, En Barberon, Curon for a total extension of about 35 hectares, all according to biodynamic agriculture principles (Demeter certified). In fact, the Tissot family produces wines with “love and passion” as they like to define themselves, they believe that wine can reflect the personality of those who produce it and that being an “organic” material it is constantly evolving and that you cannot find two wines identical to the others. “The industrialization of wine is the end of the identities of wine and its characteristics that are part of the magic of a bottle” is one of the family’s favorite phrases. The vinification according to the specific differences of the terroirs leads to the production of 28 different cuvées.
