DD Rouge

Domaine Tissot

The ‘DD’ is Stéphane’s tribute to his father, Andre (‘DD’), a throwback to the pre-Stéphane days when the red wines of Jura were not often single varietal affairs but blends of their three autochthonous reds. The ‘DD’ is a delicious blend of Poulsard, Trousseau, and Pinot Noir in equal parts. Extremely long and gentle maceration gives the wine this tender yet robust structure of broad tannins. It’s such a wonderful and surprising texture for such a light wine. The fruit is lively and joyous, showing bright cherry and raspberry and crunchy plum over an ozone-like, ferrous minerality.
