Henri Le Roy is a former biologist and geneticist from Paris who had a career change in the early 2000's and began making wine in Jura . Inspired by the wines of Burgundy, he travelled to Beaune to study oenology and later decided to set up his winery in the rolling hills of Southern Jura, where access to top vineyard sites is a little easier than Burgundy! He farms 3-5 hectares of vines around the villages of Grusse and Vincelles (also known as Val Sonette). This south part of the Jura wine region is home to famous names such as Ganavet, Miroirs and Labet. Henri’s best site is called ‘Vernambaud’, this is the magical plot just outside the village of Grusse. Here there are two isolated parcels of vines surrounded by forest, one is a very well-known vineyard belonging to Kenjiro Kagami of Domaine Miroirs, the other is Henri’s. The soils here are rich in blue marl and the site is known for its low yields.
Henri's vines are farmed without synthetic chemicals (but are not certified), he makes wines in the topped up (Ouille) style with no additions apart from SO2 at bottling. These wines have great tension and depth and can be found in some of the great restaurants of the world.
