"Mid to deep cherry red. Mildly reductive. Seriously fresh and lively with mostly dark-red fruit and dry chewy finesse to the tannins, with additional freshness from the stems. More savoury than fruitily charming. A nice dusty, dry finish." JR

This is from two parcels in Comblanchien. Jane Eyre notes: ‘Due to the frost I only managed to get 2.5 barrels from my normal supplier. I purchased another 4 barrels’ worth of fruit from another producer several hundred metres from my usual guy. The two parcels were picked one week apart and fermented separately. The earlier parcel was farmed biodynamically and 100% destemmed. The second parcel had around 30% whole bunch. As we had a bit of time up our sleeves while sorting, I decided to cut out the main section of the stem."

Burgundy’s next generation of talent isn’t necessarily Burgundy-born. Sometimes the breath of fresh air tradition needs can come from the other side of the world. Australian-born Jane Eyre joined her first harvest in Burgundy in 1998; the rest as is said is history. After a series of stages with lauded names such as Ernst Loosen in Germany’s Mosel and Frédéric Mugnier in Chambolle-Musigny she began in 2011 making her own wines as a micro-négociant sharing winery space with no other than Dominique Lafon. With a style that recalls the elegance and intensity of fine Burgundy from the sisters Mugneret Jane Eyre’s natural touch is both inspiring and irresistible. Crafted in limited quantities and by hand her wines capture the pure fruit and mineral essence of classically styled Burgundian grapes.
