Corvees sous Couron is an absolutely delightful, well balanced white wine - the complex nose reveals itself through white flower fragrances, honey aromas, and a hint of grilled almonds. The mouth is thick and round with a great richness of texture and depth of flavor. The finish is long and opulent. 

Domaine de la Tournelle

Evelyne and Pascal Clairet created their domaine in 1991 and later opened a little bistro in their garden by the water in the center of the town of Arbois, open in the summer. Continuing after her husband’s passing away (2021), Evelyne works with 8 hectares of vines planted of mostly white grapes (the locally typical Savagnin and Chardonnay) and some reds (Trousseau and Ploussard).

Tournelle makes traditional wines in the traditions of Arbois, such as the Terre de Gryphées or Vin Jaune, while also exploring new paths, such as the use of carbonic maceration in the Uva Arbosiana red. Their methodology and passion are clearly invested in producing wines that represent the tradition and potential that this dynamic AOC possesses.
