Guillaume Overnoy , the great-nephew of Pierre Overnoy , confirms that the Overnoy family and the Jura form an enduring alliance. Guillaume took the reins of the family estate in 2014, located in Orbagna in the South Revermont , and he is firmly committed to environmentally friendly viticulture. This young winemaker has a clear vision: to produce lively and pure wines . He has undertaken the conversion of the plots to organic farming , demonstrating his dedication to sustainable agricultural practices . The Chardonnay , Savagnin grape varieties for the whites, and Trousseau , Pinot Noir , and Poulsard for the reds, are pampered and benefit from the influence of the region's varied terroirs. When it comes to winemaking, Guillaume Overnoy stands out for his know-how. He limits the use of sulfur, favors fermentations triggered by indigenous yeasts , and opts for extended aging in barrels . This approach has changed the style of the estate's wines, making them more digestible and vibrant . Guillaume Overnoy thus offers a magnificent interpretation of his terroirs, resulting from meticulous care in both the cultivation of the vines and the winemaking. He embodies the new generation of Jura winemakers and promises to shine like a rising star in the world of wine. His commitment to viticultural practices that respect nature is a source of inspiration for lovers of pure and authentic natural wines .
