Domaine Désiré Petit
Tribu’lles NV
Pétillant Naturel
Savagnin & Chardonnay
Organic, sustainable, hand harvested
Pupillin, Jura, France
The Petit Family
Shining yellow with very active white bubbles. Lovely scents of apples, pears, a sparkle of lime, hazelnuts, fresh pecans picked from my granny’s trees (used to throw sticks up in the high branches to make them shower down), dried pineapple, and golden raisins. Sip and all those sniffs are there with a bit more lime/lemon sizzle, now it’s almond instead of hazelnut, and a mineral/salt shake. It’s fresh, crisp with a touch of lush, and I’d love to drink this in my old home backyard watching the evening fade & the lightening bugs come out to dance.
Pairs with Cheez-Its: ooh yes
Désiré Petit started his domaine in 1932, and the family are now in their 3rd generation of winemaking. Over the years they have grown, held themselves to goals (going organic, expanding their plots, etc) and all the while letting their passion flow. They also say that to truly get to know who they, their land and their wines are would be best to let them guide you…”our greatest pleasure would be to show you around the cellars and share with you, glass in hand, an unforgettable tasting.” A good way to meet them upclose and personal is to camp out. They’re members of “France Passion” (friendly and gourmet stopovers). All you need is a self contained motorhome, a membership in the group, use one of the 5 spots on their beautiful land, and follow the “Golden Rules” which shouldn’t be hard for those that appreciate the experience. First of all be nice, say hi & enjoy their knowledge of their wine, territory, food, and the neighborhood; be respectful & don’t leave trash behind, and of course let them know when you’re ready to hit the road again (cue Willie Nelson music). 🚐
