Urfé Blanc Aligoté La Côte is born in the heart of the Franche-Comté, a land renowned for excellent viticulture. This white wine, made exclusively from the Aligoté grape variety, expresses the purity and freshness typical of the Côte de Jura terroir. Vincent Giraudon and Romain Paire follow an artisanal approach, enhancing the peculiarities of the limestone soil and carefully tended vines. The wine stands out for its liveliness and clarity, with delicate aromas of citrus, white flowers, and a mineral hint reminiscent of the calcareous structure. On the palate, it is bright, with a marked acidity well balanced by a slight roundness, which gives a pleasant persistence. Perfect as an aperitif or paired with light dishes of fish, shellfish, or fresh cheeses, Urfé Blanc Aligoté La Côte is a glass that tells the authentic and surprising character of the French Jura.

Winery history
Vincent Giraudon, trained in viticulture and oenology, began working on half a hectare, alternating vineyard work with a career as a cook before devoting himself fully to winemaking and establishing his winery in Saint‑Alban‑les‑Eaux. On his website he now reports an estate grown to nearly 4 hectares and managed organically. Romain Paire heads Domaine des Pothiers, a family estate in the Côte Roannaise; he is known for converting to organic and biodynamic farming and for the leading role his domaine plays within the appellation. Together they appear in some cuvées marketed jointly.
Production philosophy
Viticultural practices focused on vineyard quality: organic management and a biodynamic approach as practiced by Romain Paire; hand-harvested grapes and low-intervention winemaking that includes carbonic maceration, aging in vats, wood or amphorae depending on the cuvée, and sometimes secondary bottle fermentation for sparkling wines. The approach emphasizes the expression of the granitic soil and the freshness of the fruit.
Terroir and vineyards
Côte Roannaise, Loire Valley. Granite-dominated soils characterize many parcels mentioned for both Vincent Giraudon and Domaine des Pothiers. Labels and technical sheets display designations such as AOC Côte Roannaise, IGP Vin de Pays d'Urfé and Vin de France, depending on the cuvée.
