Macvin du Jura - Domaine Bourdy

A fortified wine from the Jura, made from Chardonnay and red varieties grown on dry soils rich in marl and gravel. Two thirds unfermented grape must are enriched with one third Marc du Jura, a grape-pomace spirit aged in oak, whose 50% vol stops fermentation and preserves the grape's natural sweetness. The wine is then aged for one year in wooden barrels. It is suggested with foie gras, blue cheeses such as Gorgonzola and chicken liver pâté.
