2024 was once described to us as a year of constant struggle—humans against nature. At Domaine La Grapp’A, what would normally have been three separate winesended up in this unique cuvée, which we hope will remain a one-off—without tempting fate.

The wine is crafted in their distinctive style: fresh and lively, with a touch of Jurassic wilderness and an artisanal core that defines the domaine. Its bright ruby robe echoes notes of fresh berries, undergrowth, and pepper, making it an easy-drinking yet indulgent red. Ideal as an aperitif, served with cured meats and antipasti.

Aurelie Parla and Julien Maublanc created Domaine la Grapp’A with their first vintage in 2021. Although they are not newcomers since the 7ha vineyards has been in Julien’s family for generations. Based in the small village of Abergement-le-Grand 5kms outside of Arbois, they have been working organically for the past 15 years, but all their vineyards were contracted to the local cooperative (or fruitiere vinicole as it is called in the Jura). The vineyards are in immaculate conditions and although they are not born winemakers or learnt with famous names, they surely know how to farm! They have excellent plot around Arbois and Buvilly.
