An exploration of genuine terroir: A minerally taste at The Percée du Vin Jaune - the Jura Mountains: "The Jura is one of France’s smallest wine-producing regions, with a soil full of clay and limestone that produces several grapes rarely found anywhere else...Purists reverentially explain the length of time the stuff must age in barrels — precisely six years and three months — and the unusual fact that as the wine evaporates it is not topped up, as is most wine...Comté is named for this part of France, the Franche-Comté; Morbier is instantly recognizable by the distinctive gray-green layer of ash running through its middle, like icing laterally bisecting a layer cake. Both are A.O.C. (Appellation Origine Contrôlée) for this region, a much-sought-after distinction, which, roughly translated, means: This place, right here, is where you get the best version of this stuff.
