The Who's Who Of Jura: The Producers Not To Miss

We all know the stars of Jura: Domaine Labet, JF Ganevat, Maison Pierre Overnoy/Houillon, Bruyère-Houillon etc. These cult icons are the stuff of wine legend, but let’s face it—tracking them down can be as rare as a solar eclipse 🌞. (Although we do get stock a few times a year, so keep your eyes peeled 👀!)

But Jura has so much more to offer beyond its headliners. There’s a wealth of other top-notch producers crafting exceptional wines that are not only a little easier to source but also friendlier on the wallet. Here’s our guide to the hidden gems of Jura you need to know—available now at Cave.
