Jacques TISSOT has created his Domaine in 1962 with a plot inherited from his father, and the first vintage of yellow wine (vin jaune) was born in 1969, a mythique year. The estate now extends over 30 hectares, to AOC Arbois.
Son of a winegrower Jacques has successfully developed the traits so typical of the wines of Jura. His children Philip and Nathalie have now taken over. With this combination, the trio has managed to bring in modern production and to develop the traditional channels of sales with listed wines in establishments and on tables of prestige.

Vinification and aging: Mostly manual harvesting, pneumatic pressing, alcoholic and malolactic fermentation in vats.
Aged for 6 years and 3 months in barrels in ventilated attics, causing an evaporation of around 38% of the Savagnin. During ageing, the veil of yeast transforms Savagnin into Vin Jaune.
