If it "only" extends over 80 kilometers, the Jura vineyard is no less rich and varied. From Champagne-sur-Loue to Saint-Amour, nestled against the Jura mountains, it includes 7 appellations d'origine contrôlée which guarantee the authenticity of its wines.
The AOC d'Arbois, the oldest is the most extensive, the AOC Côtes du Jura which can be found from north to south, the AOC l'Étoile which gives pride of place to the Chardonnay grape variety and the AOC Château-Chalon which produces the Vin Jaune.
In addition to these four geographical AOCs, there are also AOP appellations: Macvin du Jura (liqueur), Crémant du Jura (sparkling wine) and Marc du Jura (distilled brandy). There are five grape varieties in the Jura: chardonnay, savagnin, poulsard, trousseau and pinot noir.
