Domaine Jean Foillard is a leader in natural wines and uses only small amounts of S0₂. ‘These are wines with presence and weight matiere packed to the rafters with fistfuls of fruit without excessive or obvious effort ‘ says Neal Martin. This includes keeping whole clusters of grapes in vats for 2 to 3 weeks at a low temperature before fermentation using only natural yeast no pumping no fining and no filtration. Furthermore Jean Foillard ages his wine in barrels brought from the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti; the results are sublime. He is a cult wine hero amongst the many young free-spirited vignerons in France who are now looking back to nature to make fine wine.
