Description

Yves Duport Bugey White Wine is made primarily from Chardonnay grapes, with a touch of Altesse, a native variety that adds complexity and character. The grapes are harvested by hand and fermented with native yeasts. It has an aromatic bouquet of white flowers, citrus fruits, and hints of minerality. On the palate, it delivers a well-balanced blend of crisp acidity and rich flavors, including notes of green apple, and lemon zest. The wine is aged on its lees in stainless steel tanks. Excellent choice for pairing with seafood, poultry, and light pasta dishes.

Producer profile

Yves Duport

Domaine Yves Duport, spanning 12 hectares, is a testament to the dedication of four generations. Today, the Domaine is managed through organic and biodynamic methods. Most of its plots, rich in clay-limestone soil, are strategically oriented south-south-east, overlooking the Rhone's untouched natural banks. Here, the approach is to let nature take the lead in tilling the soil and caring for the grapevines, enabling the vines to absorb what they need from the ground naturally. This cultivation method is critical to fully capturing and expressing the terroir's essence. As a result, the wines from Domaine Yves Duport reflect the distinct character of the terroir.

Wine region

Bugey, France

The Bugey wine region, nestled between Lyon and Geneva in eastern France, is a hidden gem known for its diverse and high-quality wines. This relatively small but historically rich area boasts a unique terroir characterized by its limestone-rich soils, varied microclimates, picturesque rolling hills, and lush vineyard landscapes. Combining these elements creates an ideal environment for growing a variety of grape types, leading to an array of distinctive wines.

Bugey produces an impressive range of wines, including whites, reds, rosés, and sparkling. The white wines, often made from Chardonnay, Altesse (also known as Roussette), and Jacquère, are celebrated for their crisp acidity, floral aromas, and mineral notes. The red wines, crafted primarily from Gamay, Pinot Noir, and Mondeuse, offer vibrant fruit flavors and a balance of freshness and complexity.

One of Bugey’s standout offerings is its sparkling wine, known as Bugey-Cerdon. This semi-sweet, pink bubbly is made predominantly from Gamay and Poulsard grapes using the méthode ancestrale. This traditional method produces a naturally low-alcohol, effervescent wine with delightful red berry flavors and a refreshing finish. Bugey-Cerdon has gained a loyal following for its unique character and versatility as an aperitif or dessert wine. The Bugey region is also notable for its commitment to sustainable viticulture, with many winemakers adopting organic and biodynamic practices.

Despite its relatively modest size, the Bugey wine region offers a remarkable diversity of high-quality wines that capture the essence of its unique landscape and winemaking heritage. For wine enthusiasts seeking to explore lesser-known but exceptional French wines, Bugey presents an exciting and rewarding destination.
