2022 Domaine Désire Petit, Ploussard

The Domaine was created in 1932 by the grandfather “Désiré Petit”.  27 hectares of vines have been planted in the heart of this famous vineyard of the Jura. Located between Burgundy and Switzerland, this cool climate wine region with an elevation between 250 -400m above sea level, produces wines with some similarities to Burgundy.

The Domaine Désiré Petit is certified Biodynamic. Today the Domaine is run by the 3rd generation consisting of a young dynamic team of brother and sister. Damien is producing the wines and Anne-Laure is looking after the vineyards and marketing.
