Information

Fabrice Dodane had worked at the Domaine de Saint Pierre as a wine-maker, and then he took over the estate in 2011 due to the untimely death of the owner. The vineyards had begun the organic transition process in 2002 and were certified by Ecocert in 2008. Today, he cultivates 7.5ha in Arbois and Côtes du Jura appellations. On top of these healthy vineyard's condition, he has drastically improved wine-making especially by eliminating the use of sulfur except when absolutely necessary. All wines are fermented by indigenous yeasts in either stainless steel tanks(red) or 400-600L oak puncheons(white). Whites are aged in either the traditional sous voile (oxidative) or ouillé (topped-off or Burgundian) methods.

In recent years, due to lesser crops in Jura caused by spring frosts, Dodane has expanded his horizons to include purchasing grapes from friends farming to his exacting standards both in the Jura and from other regions. Le Dos d’Chat is a series of “Glou Glou” wines made by purchased grapes, that show a deft hand with good sense of wine-making. They are mostly vinified using whole clusters and an absolute minimal use of sulfur during the wine-making process. Fabrice Dodane is a true passionate and skilled vigneron, always seeking for new ideas to lift up his wines to the next level.
