About the winery:
Francois Rousset-Martin comes from a long line of winemaking family, as both of his great-grandfather and grandfather were vine growers in Jura. Growing up in Burgundy, Francois would often spend his time between Burgundy and Jura helping his father while making wine. After graduating with his oenology degree, he started to make wine in Southern Rhone as well as in Languedoc. He eventually returned to Jura in 2007 to take over the family vineyard and to make his own wine in the village of Nevy-sur-Seille. It's not difficult to see the influence of Burgundy winemaking as Francois believes ouille (topping up) style and single-vineyard are the key elements to show the unique terroir characteristics of each vineyard faithfully.

The name of this Cuvee is a playful nod to the Cuvee 910 from Julien Guillot in Macon, with François Rousset-Martin working on Jurassian Pinot Noir in the same way as the finest Burgundian Pinot Noirs.
