The tiny wine region of Jura in eastern France has leapt to fame in the last five years.
Famous in its home country for its unique Vin Jaune, the region produces an extraordinary diversity of wine styles from pale reds, minerally dry whites and oxidative whites to sparkling, sweet and fortified. All from just five grape varieties.
Wink Lorch, the author of the definitive book on the region, Jura Wine, will explain how this myriad of wine styles has evolved through the ages, along with discussing the varieties, the terroir and comparisons with its close neighbour, Burgundy.
