Jura has a vineyard of about 2500 hectares spread over an 80 km long and 3 to 8 km wide strip, on the flank of the first reliefs of the massif. Though small in size, it is unique for its very particular wines, often made from local grape varieties. This uniqueness is due to the nature of its viticultural soils, dominated by marly terrains, enriched with scree deposits from the limestone cliff to which it is backed.
Illustrated with numerous photographs and explanatory diagrams on the geology of the subsoil, this book allows you to discover the richness of the Jura wine landscapes and understand the organization of its terroirs. Useful for winemakers, it will also satisfy the curiosity and interest of the public in the vine. Indeed, quality wine enthusiasts are increasingly less satisfied with mere tasting. They want to know the entire chain of elements and practices that lead to wine. With the development of wine tourism, this strong demand for explanation is now coupled with the desire to know the setting in which the vineyards were established. Tasting a wine also means linking it to the land from which it comes and the landscape within which it was developed. This book meets this expectation.
