Domaine Buronfosse
is a small, highly respected natural wine producer located in Rotalier, within the southern part of the Jura region of France. Founded in 1999 by Peggy and Jean-Pascal Buronfosse, they are known for their hands-on approach and commitment to vibrant, expressive wines. Notably, they started their journey with guidance from their esteemed neighbor, Jean-François Ganevat, another Jura natural wine icon.
Their philosophy is deeply rooted in organic and biodynamic farming practices, having achieved organic certification by 2010. They maintain approximately 4.5 hectares of vineyards with traditional Jura grape varieties, fostering soil health and biodiversity. In the cellar, their winemaking philosophy emphasizes minimal intervention. Fermentations are spontaneous, driven by indigenous yeasts, and the wines are typically bottled unfined and unfiltered, with little to no added sulfur. While many of their white wines are made in the "ouillé" (topped-up, non-oxidative) style, they also produce some "sous voile" (oxidative) expressions, as well as captivating reds and even sparkling wines. Their wines are celebrated for their purity, freshness, and the authentic expression of the Jura's unique terroir, often showing bright acidity and a distinctive mineral character.
